Marmots, ibex and choughs will be there to greet you after the ascent of Pas du Fouillet.

Tour of the Huts and Springs of the High Plateaus
A long and beautiful hike, like an orienteering game, in search of huts (shepherds’ or hikers’) and precious springs on the Vercors High Plateaus. Fabulous scenery guaranteed. The highlight, undoubtedly the most beautiful natural site on the Hauts Plateaux, is the Plaine de la Queyrie, where I’d love to be reincarnated as a marmot, with its carved tree and its stunning Roman quarry.
