Departure from Lans-en-Vercors (Isère)
A route starting from the village with lovely forest paths and magnificent views from the Crête de Jaume.
(Pleasetake great care on this circular route): it crosses the Vercors plateau’s departmental roads four times. These roads are:
- Lans-en-Vercors towards Villard-de-Lans,
- Lans-en-Vercors towards Autrans,
are extremely busy and vehicles crossing the route all travel at high speed.
Hikers mustbe extremely vigilant when crossing these roads.

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.
