Explore the snow-covered landscapes of the Trièves and Vercors at your own pace
You’ll be accompanied by the sound of the wind in the trees, the cries of birds of prey, the cracking of branches under the weight of the snow… Whether you’re on a guided expedition, a night walk or off the beaten track, snowshoeing is accessible to everyone, children, adults, beginners or experienced sportsmen and women. There are marked snowshoe trails for all levels.
In the Trièves you have a choice of several worlds:
- In Gresse en Vercors, discover the cliffs of the Vercors, the Gresse valley and the Serpaton mountain pasture or the Col de l’Allimas. 8 signposted runs and lots of ideas for walks!
- At Chichilianne, at the foot of Mont Aiguille and at the gateway to the Vercors High Plateaux nature reserve, enjoy unspoilt open spaces in a timeless atmosphere!
- At Tréminis, beneath the imposing Grand Ferrand on the Dévoluy side, discover the “pearl of the Trièves”, with its 4 hamlets and forest paths, in a world that’s still wild!
