The Walking Tour of the Queyras, GR58 and GR541

The Tour of the Queyras described in this guidebook (henceforth referred to as the Tour) makes use of two GR trails and their variants and a number of non-GR footpaths. The two GR routes are the GR58 (Tour du Queyras) and the GR541.

The Standard GR58

The standard GR58 Tour du Queyras, opened in 1984, is a circular tour from Ceillac > Saint-Véran > Refuge Agnel > Col Vieux > Lac Foréant > Lac Egourgéou > La Monta > Ristolas > Abriès > Lac du Grand Laus > Col du Malrif > Les Fonts de Cervières > Souliers > Brunissard > Furfande > Les Escoyères > Ceillac. There are two alternative routes from Les Escoyères to Ceillac, both referred to as the GR58, i.e. either via the Col de Bramousse or via Montbardon and Col Fromage. The standard route of the GR58 lies entirely within France.

Variants to the GR58

There are also four official alternative routes (variants) to certain parts of the standard GR58. These are all on the eastern or northern sections of the route, and two of them enter Italy. The variants are as follows.
