Col de la Croix Perrin (1306m) walks

A very classic route that takes you to four remarkable viewpoints in succession, offering views of Grenoble and its valley, as well as the Vercors plateau, the Rocher de l’Ours and the Roc Cornafion. It’s a hike you should do at least once if you’re in the area. Ideally, you should take two cars up and leave one at the finish, which is at the Parking des Barnets, two hairpin bends below the start point at the Lans-en-Vercors resort.

First stage of the circular route from Saint Nizier to Corrençon en Vercors, with a stop at the Cabane de Roybon below the Col Vert.Whilst the first part is easy, the section between Col de l’Arc and Col Vertis challenging, with sections over a sheer drop!Take great care.

A relatively easy circular route that follows the balcony path running along the foot of the Vercors cliff from Saint-Nizier-du-Moucherotte to Gresse-en-Vercors. You then climb up onto the plateau via the Col des Bachassons and return to theGR® via the Pas des Chatons, before heading to Corrençon-en-Vercors, where you will have left a car.

The second stage of the Vercors crossing, offering stunning views of the villages of the Vercors.

This traverse of the northern Vercors links Engins to Saint-Gervais from east to west, passing over three peaks and through particularly wild sections. The route offers a wonderful variety of landscapes, ranging from forests to mountain pastures and the ridges typical of the Vercors. The higher ground offers stunning views over the Isère valley, the Chartreuse and the surrounding Alpine massifs. The route alternates between open stretches and more wooded sections, some of which are very remote. ⚠️ This route is intended solely for experienced and well-trained walkers. A GPX track is essential. See practical information.
