Departure from Saint-Martin-en-Vercors (Drôme)
This challenging hike takes you through a forest of beech and spruce trees. The trail crosses the remarkable Herbouilly lawn. During the descent from Sambue, we spotted a deer. There are beautiful views of the Saint-Martin valley, the Font d'Urle plateau and the Grande Moucherolle, and don't miss the Vierge du Vercors.
