The Vercors Plateau (also known as the Vercors Massif) is one of the most spectacular natural jewels of the French Prealps, located straddling the departments of Isère and Drôme, a short distance from Grenoble. This vast limestone mountainous area, which extends over more than 206,000 hectares, is famous for its unique geological conformation that earned it the nickname of "fortress": an immense rocky block surrounded by impressive vertical cliffs, deep canyons, and spectacular internal plateaus.

Going up or down the Col de la Chau, breathtaking view of the southern part of the Vercors plateau, and more particularly of the surroundings of Vassieux en Vercors
