Departure from Glandage (Drôme)
A superb circular route in the isolated enclave of south-eastern Vercors, on the border between Drôme and Isère. The route combines the geological interest of the Sucettes de Borne, the flowers and wide open spaces of the Jiboui mountain pastures, and a long stretch along grassy ridges with extraordinary panoramic views.

Departure from Glandage (Drôme)
This is an easy hike, whose main attraction is the superb site of the Sucettes de Borne, narrow, vertical rock formations several dozen metres high, defying the laws of gravity. The trails are very pleasant, with contrasting vegetation: on the south side, semi-Mediterranean with forests mainly populated by pine trees; on the north side, a beautiful mixed forest of fir and beech trees, with lots of boxwood.

Departure from Agnières-en-Dévoluy (Hautes-Alpes)
Most of the route follows theGRP® Tour du Dévoluy trail markedGR®94.
For the return journey, rather than going back the same way, you can vary the route by returning via Small Pass and Le Charvet. This is an off-trail route.
This alternative route must be taken in good visibility and requires the ability to use a map and compass, which is essential for off-trail hiking.
The view from Le Chauvet over Le Dévoluy is magnificent.
