Travel Guide Villard-De-Lans

Villard and Corrençon: the two villages have joined their efforts to offer a resort to live in any season. The 4 seasons are like the 4 cardinal points, each one gives a new meaning to your stay in Vercors, at the entrance of the imposing gorges of the Bourne, and at the vertical of the Grande Moucherolle which from the top of its 2 284 m of altitude dominates the surrounding slopes and limestone plateaus.In winter, Villard-de-Lans and Corrençon offer one of the largest alpine/nordic ski areas in Europe. There is something for everyone in equal measure: the 125 km of alpine slopes and the 130 km of the Nordic area offer a complete panorama of snow activities, snowshoeing or skiing. Three entrances to the alpine resort for a varied area with alternating cliffs and fir trees. Three gates for the Nordic domain, in Corrençon, Herbouilly and Bois Barbu, make it an essential meeting place for skating or alternative skiing enthusiasts.In summer, the richness of the flora and fauna is the backdrop for hiking, cycling, horseback riding... but also the ideal setting for sports activities - golf, paragliding, hot air ballooning... - or more challenging sports such as canyoning, climbing..In autumn and spring, you can enjoy the activities of a complete sports resort, but also the traditions of agriculture and breeding in a lively village, all year round, which is not satisfied with a solely seasonal activity. Here, local life gives rhythm to the year 365 days a year, from the remains of the martyred village of Valchevrière to the edges of the wilderness of the Hauts Plateaux, from the wave pool to the pedestrian streets.
