The three Matheysins Lakes
A beautiful hike where, on the way there, you will walk along the shores of the Pierre-Châtel and Pétichet lakes with a short detour to see Lake Laffrey, and return via the Cholonge ridges at the foot of the Grand Serre.
The engineering structures of the railway line from La Mure to Monteynard
This relatively easy hike offers beautiful views of the eastern flank of the Vercors massif, the Drac valley and the Monteynard dam lake in its first, open section, as well as the Matheysine area towards the peaks overlooking the Matheysine lakes. The second part, which is more shaded, will take you through the surrounding hamlets and past some of the engineering structures of the La Mure tourist railway.
La Pierre Percée from Notre-Dame-de-Vaulx
This is an additional and original way to access the Pierre Percée, a marvel of the Dauphiné region. The site overlooks the entire Matheysine area and offers magnificent views of all the surrounding mountains.
After climbing through the forest, the route opens out onto meadows, and the descent to the Motte d'Aveillans is clear.
Circular route around the three peaks of Conest
This lovely circular route leads to the Conest (or Conex or Connex) summit plateau, which is a vast area of pasture.
Although the climb may seem a little long, it is very pleasant and a magnificent reward awaits the hiker once at the top: a 360° panorama offering views of the Belledonne, Taillefer, Grandes-Rousses, Dévoluy and Vercors mountain ranges.
The ‘Difficult’ rating is due to the combination of distance and elevation gain, both of which are significant.
Circular from Col du Sénépy to Pierre Plantée

Circular route around the lakes of the Matheysin plateau and Pierre Percée
A fairly easy hike to discover three of the four lakes on the Matheysin plateau and one of the wonders of the Dauphiné, the Pierre Percée.

Crossing the meadows, you will then discover the surrounding mountains from the south of the Vercors to the Oisans via the Obiou. In Prunières, you will visit an old mining well where a magnificent fresco pays tribute to the miners. Paths and trails alternate between shaded and sunny passages.
