Departure from Engins (Isère)
This is a pleasant route with no real difficulties, apart from the distance and a few steep sections in thefirst third.
Once you reach the ridges (take care if you have young children), you will walk constantly above the plateau with a magnificent view of Grenoble, as well as the Trois Pucelles, Moucherotte, Pic Saint-Michel and Roc Cornafion. The return via the plateau is a formality, where a gourmet stop at the refuge is a must.

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.

Departure from Sassenage (Isère)
This exploratory hike along the paths on the northern flank of the Vercors should be treated as a training session if it is cold higher up. There are three viewpoints, two of which have been developed.
That said, the constant change in gradient along this route is sure to please any hiker or runner hoping to tackle the drovers' road leading to the Sornin plateau at a later date.
This walk is only enjoyable in dry weather, as the slopes become slippery after rain.

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.
