Between alpine coolness and a warm Mediterranean climate
The Vercors mountain range towers in France's Pre-Alps, just outside Grenoble. There, where the Mediterranean air is already on fire, with a hint of lavender.
You can download the GPS data for the BIKE tours from the Vercors tour report in the French Pre-Alps free of charge from the download area directly below this article. Have fun following them!
- TOUR 1: French Canada - the Hauts Plateaux (35.7 km / 1400 m elevation gain / riding time: 6 hours / difficulty: moderate) From Rousset up to the high plateau and on the only authorised MTB route through the nature reserve.
- TOUR 2: Les Coulmes (29 km / 1175 m elevation gain / Cycling time: 5 hours / Difficulty: medium to difficult) Through the dense beech forests of the north with views from the abrupt rocky cliff. Challenging rocky trails!
- TOUR 3: Moliere Plateau (38 km / 1190 m elevation gain / riding time: 6 hours / difficulty: medium to difficult) Classic tour over the mountain ranges of Autrans with the Bellecombe at the end, a five-kilometre trail descent from La Moliere to Autrans. Probably the best descent in the Vercors.
