GR®93 Crossing Vercors
From Valence TGV (Drôme) to Peyssier Lake (Hautes-Alpes)
The Vercors is a spectacular limestone massif covering approximately 2,500 square kilometers, reaching an altitude of 2,341 meters at the summit of Grand Veymont. Bordered by the Drôme Valley to the east and the Isère Valley to the west, it features an incredible variety of landscapes, including vast plateaus, steep cliffs, dramatic gorges, and hidden valleys. The Vercors is a true sanctuary for biodiversity: its coniferous forests, alpine meadows, and rocky terrains provide vital refuge for species such as chamois, ibex, lynx, and birds of prey like the bearded vulture and golden eagle. The diverse flora includes endemic alpine plants and a striking array of wildflowers that bloom beautifully in spring and summer. The Vercors Regional Natural Park is crucial in preserving this pristine environment, making the GR®93 an unforgettable journey for nature lovers.
