Pas de Bellecombe walks

A short family walk offering excellent views for the effort. Best done on a day with good visibility. Please note: a hiker has informed us that in summer, at weekends, access to the plateau is restricted: you must take a shuttle bus (or a chairlift, which is quite far away).

A mineral, even lunar landscape with breathtaking views. An extraordinary hike, close to the volcano. Please note: since the 2007 lava flows, access to the Bory Crater is no longer possible. Until further notice, follow the route described here as a round trip.

Ridge walk from Pas de Bellecombe to La Molière via the highest point of Charande. Numerous viewpoints over the Alps and the Chartreuse.

This route is classified as a long walk, but it is a mini-circular that allows you to relax pleasantly in the mountain pasture surrounding the Molière lodge.

This hike offers numerous panoramic views of the Chartreuse, Belledonne and part of the Vercors, both along the ridge trail and the pleasant path that crosses the mountain pasture.

A very easy route on the ridge separating the Autrans valley from that of Lans en Vercors.

Long snowshoe hike (or walk) on the eastern ridge of the northern Vercors overlooking the Molière plateau and return via the plateau (or in the opposite direction if the north wind is blowing on the plateau). 6 hours on foot; 7 hours on snowshoes.

This hike takes place partly on a fairly open ridge and partly in the forest. The Pas de Bellecombe offers a pleasant spot for a picnic and a viewpoint over the part of the Vercors that stretches from Moucherotte to Pic Saint-Michel, the Grenoble basin and the Belledonne massif.

An invigorating and challenging hike that alternates between woodland and ridge trails with views of both sides of the mountain.

A nice walk which enjoys the shade of the trees for the uphill section. As described the Charande ridge is walked from North to South as this gives better views. The Refuge des Feneys makes for a nice place to stop. This walk descends from Pas de Bellecombe, but you could descend earlier if you wanted to; see notes.
