A ride up to the Tunnel du Parpaillon

Tunnel du Parpaillon

Though off-roading is illegal in most areas around the Parc du Mercantour and its surrounding areas, there are still a few roads that you can ride. The road leading up to the Col du Parpaillon is one of them.

Not the easiest road to ride, especially with a with a big adventure bike, but once you get the feel for it and how the ground holds, it is a lot of fun!

Hope you enjoy the videos and the pix….
