Author's noteSorry: the circular described below is no longer possible due to the closure of the trail between points (13) and (15) (see message from May 2023).A superb circular in the isolated islet of south-eastern Vercors, on the border between Drôme and Isère. The route combines the geological curiosity of the Sucettes de Borne, the flowers and wide open spaces of the Jiboui mountain pastures, and a long route along grassy ridges crowned by the Jocou, with extraordinary panoramic views.

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.
