Falaises de Presles walks

A climb up the north-western ridges of the Vercors. Beautiful views over the Isère valley and the walnut groves of Saint-Marcellin.

From Les Rimets (Rencurel) to Presles. A route running almost entirely through the forest. At La Goulandière, magnificent views from the Belvédère du Ranc overlooking La Bourne.

Stage2 of the Tour des Coulmes. This is the longest stage and the one with the steepest gradient. The final section takes place entirely through woodland.

This is the longest stage of this traverse, but also the one that marks the entrance to the high plateaus.

A hike in the heart of the Vercors to discover ibex (numerous and not shy in these mountains). And as a bonus on arrival, beautiful panoramic views of the surrounding mountains.

This walk leads to Lac de la Moucherolle and the Fauge valley. This hike allows you to discover a multitude of landscapes ranging from a mineral world to pastures and forests with beautiful panoramic views of the entire northern Vercors.

Day2 of a traverse of the Vercors via the balcony path.

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.

Day3 of our traverse: setting off from the Cabane de la Peyrouse to reach Gresse en Vercors. We go round the Grand Veymond to climb back up onto the plateau via the Col des Bachassons (water), then stop at the Cabane de l’Aiguillette.

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.
