Entre Mont-Aiguille et Grand-Veymont
A varied route that takes you to the foot of the Grand Veymont and offers magnificent views of the famous Mont-Aiguille. The passage over the Quinquambaye ridge is reserved for experienced hikers who are not sensitive to vertigo!

The itinerary is part of the Parcours du Mont-Aiguille, a series of trails with interpretive displays on geology, history, art, biodiversity, human life, legends... to help you better understand this emblematic and majestic summit!
Route details
Departure: Park at the “Champ de l'Herse” parking lot in the commune of Gresse en Vercors. This parking lot is at the end of the Gresse en Vercors ski area.
1) Head for “Baraque du Veymont” on the right bank of the Gresse stream, then take the path through the undergrowth that gradually climbs up to the hut.
2) A few metres after the hut, take the path that climbs to the left towards “Tiolache”. You'll soon come to the most vertiginous part of the hike, the Quinquambaye ridge, so be careful! After enjoying the view, descend and return to the forest as far as the “Tiolache” post.

4) Follow the signs north past the chapel to “Ruisseau de Chauplane”.
5) Cross the small hamlet of Chauplane facing Mont-Aiguille before continuing to climb to “Col de l'Allimas”.
6) Continue towards “Combe Rouge”, then turn left towards “Aux Fayolles”, where you'll find Odyssée Verte.
