The Vercors is a limestone fortress: vertical cliffs hundreds of metres high, wild plateaux behind them, and balcony paths cut across the flanks. The Grand Veymont reaches 2,341m, and Mont Aiguille stands away from the main wall as a free-standing tower. Caves, natural shafts and gorges riddle the massif. It was a centre of the French Resistance, and memorials mark the villages and passes. Ibex, chamois and marmots are widespread.
