We took a day trip to Briancon from Bourg d’Oisans yesterday. The hour and a bit drive took us up the mountains through Freney d’Oisans, and La Grave to the Col de Lautaret all with stunning views.
Briancon was easy to navigate and had loads of easy parking. It is split in to two parts and we spent most of our day walking along the narrow streets of the old town and hanging out in the bars, eating ice creams and browsing the great little shops. We also visited an art gallary exhibition that had free entry.
The old town is built inside the walls of an old fort/castle and you can take a tour of it quite cheaply. There are also gardens to explore a parks for the children to play in.
It was a great day out and well worth the trip.
