Choranche

Highlight • Gorge

Arrived in Choranche from Presle, take advantage of this stopover to refill your water. You can easily get supplies in the village or by going for a hike to the Gournier waterfall where you will also find a shop near the entrance to the Gournier cave.

Choranche holds in its heart the waterfall and the cave of Gournier. Real unusual, the cave of Gournier contains an underground lake that you will have to cross to start your caving excursion. Another portion of the cave is open to guided tours.

For more information on the site and the opening to visits of the cave follow these links:

The most beautiful gorge I have ever seen!
Absolutely amazing!
It goes through tunnels and overhanging rocks along steeply sloping limestone cliffs

Villard-de-Lans

Highlight • Settlement

Villard de Lans is a commune on the Vercors plateau. In winter, it is a small-scale ski resort with an excellent collection of cross-country ski trails. During the summer months, these trails become a paradise for mountain bikers. There is a good bus network that connects Grenoble to Villard de Lans, allowing you to easily visit the city and the Vercors massif.
