The hike to the Pas de Berrièves (1,887 m) offers an immersive experience of the wild heart of the Hauts Plateaux du Vercors Nature Reserve. You’ll pass through forests of mountain pine, high-altitude meadows and suspended scree slopes. At the summit, the view opens out, on one side, onto the vast, deserted expanse of the plateau, and, on the other, onto a barrier of cliffs, facing Mont Blanc and the Écrins . The area is ideal for spotting ibex, marmots and griffon vultures.

Le Purgatoire is an area of the Vercors High Plateaus that has remained wild despite its past history of coal mining. This circular route takes you into its heart via paths that are not always easy to follow, over often rugged terrain, but with a view from the summit of the Roches Rousses that makes the effort worthwhile.

A beautiful hike on the high plateaus of the Vercors. On the ridges of Rocher de Séguret, Roche Rousse and Pierre Blanche, you are sure to encounter deer, ibex and, with a bit of luck, marmots. Most of the hike is off the marked trails, so be sure to use the GPX track as everything looks the same. This hike is difficult due to its elevation gain (950m) and is very strenuous.

Starting from the Maison Forestière de la Coche, in a magnificent setting, take a long tour of the Vercors highlands via the Plaine de la Queyrie, see the Roman quarries and the carved tree, and encounter (without disturbing them, of course) marmots, griffon vultures, edelweiss, etc., not to mention the herds.

The route alternates between coniferous woodland and clearings bursting with flowers in spring, along easily accessible paths and tracks. And as an almost constant backdrop, the Grand Veymont, an immense and majestic bare limestone dome, rising from the vegetation of the high plateaus like a Vercors version of Ayers Rock!

This easy hike will take you to the high plateaus of the Vercors, between forests and meadows, on well-marked but sometimes unmarked trails. A little controlled adventure! An easy circular loop to do in any season, but no car access to the car park in winter.

The Col du Rousset is known as the starting point for magnificent hikes towards the Vercors Regional Nature Park. You can also do a double circular route via Pré Peyret, returning via the Pas de Chabrinel and then the Balcon du Glandasse, a route that is less frequented but very pleasant thanks to its gentle ascent through the woodland. The effort required due to the elevation gain is thus spread between the morning and the afternoon, with the total hike taking around 6 hours including breaks. Hikers are advised that in hot, sunny weather, it is essential to bring a substantial supply of water, as there are no water sources on this route.

Starting from Col du Rousset, head towards the Queyrie valley, where you will find the ancient Roman quarries, the famous carved tree, and a breathtaking view of the Grand Veymont. This is a fairly long hike, but the landscapes are magnificent, and you may even see marmots and their young, as well as griffon vultures soaring in the sky.

Starting in the forest, the landscape then becomes spectacular as you approach the Col Naturel.
