On the Gerbier ridges

◄ 04-10-2014 ►

A very beautiful outing along a knife-edge ridge in the heart of the Vercors.

With Agnes, Patrick & Aude.

Autumn and its light are here: we set off for a ride in the sky, the traverse of the Gerbier ridges.

After a luminous approach, we thread our way along this sharp crest. Wisps of cloud spill over from the east side and split the blue of the sky as if to sharpen these beautiful limestone blades even further.

This very playful ridge route offers an exceptional atmosphere for a very accessible technical difficulty.

A califourchon.

A luminous, panoramic hike spiced up with an airy and not very difficult route along the backbone of a major Vercors cliff make this day the ideal recipe for a complete and varied exposed hike.
