Hiking in the French Alps - en Vercors

This was one of my favorite hiking trips ever and I hope to return soon. We spend 3 days hiking between 15 and 28 km, and overnighted in French "Gites" or "Chambres d'Hotes" (sort of like a Bed & Breakfast, with the added benefit of a delicious home-cooked French dinner served family style with the other guests, and including dinner conversation in French!). Along the way, we passed many farms, allowing us to taste fresh milk and farm-made French cheeses.

The first day, we left the Opamobil (Andrea and Michael's car) in St. Martin-en-Vercors and walked all the way to Lans-en-Vercors (almost 30km and a bit too long of a walk), where we stayed at a very cozy gite called La Crecia located at Les Clements. The next day, we walked to a gite called Les Rimets, located near Rencurel, passing through Meaudre. Day 3 we concluded our loop by walking back to St. Martin-en-Vercors, where we stayed at La Ferme du Chateau, where we enjoyed another 4-course meal over French conversation. We hope Andrea and Michael won't leave Grenoble too soon, so we can return for another visit and hiking trip. A bientot!
