About This Route
From Briançon, the highest walled town in Europe, the D902 climbs in hairpins through the forest to the 2,360 m Col d'Izoard. On the other side lies the Casse Déserte, a valley of rocks and scree that looks like another planet. The descent continues through the Combe du Queyras, a narrow gorge that ends in Guillestre.
