Karstic cave Royer via Serre Plumé
Out of curiosity, I mapped out this route when I discovered that a karstic cave bears the same name as me. This route winds through the Lente forest and offers beautiful views of the Vassieux en Vercors valley and the Grand Veymont. And for those with a sweet tooth, you can enjoy wild raspberries, wild strawberries and, more rarely, blueberries along the way.
Serre Plumé
This route offers wonderful views of the Grand Veymond. It takes you through forests, over ridges and across rolling plains known as "Pelouses".
Col du Maupas from Font d'Urle-Chaud Clappier
Around the Sacha mountain, this snowshoe hike allows you to discover two sides of the Vercors landscape. At the Col de Carri, the landscape is forested and snow covers the entire area, giving walkers a taste of the Far North. At the Col de Maupas, the view extends over the Combe de l'Oscence and the more open environment supports lower vegetation.
