Extremely difficult
Departure from Château-Bernard (Isère)
This magnificent figure-eight route combines the ascent of Grande Moucherolle, the second highest peak in the Vercors, with the crossing of two challenging passes and the discovery of the Rocher des Deux Sœurs ridges.
This hike includes two short climbing sections (less than 5 metres each), which are not particularly difficult but are exposed. A good quarter of the route is on poorly marked paths, requiring a good sense of direction even though orientation is easy.
Marmots and ibex are on the menu.

Departure from Gresse-en-Vercors (Isère)
The second stage of the Vercors crossing. Less elevation gain than the previous day, but still a good distance. However, we’re now properly entering the Vercors plateau, and a map, a compass and a good sense of direction are essential, especially when it’s foggy!

The fourth stage of this crossing is also the least physically demanding. Very flat and short, it takes you across vast meadows. But you can spice it up with the Grand Veymont option.

Departure from Lans-en-Vercors (Isère)
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.
