Nature

The “Les charbonniers du Vercors” route begins in Saint-Martin-en-Vercors, which is considered a green valley basin surrounded by forests at an altitude of 750 m. It leads through hamlets and across meadows to Saint-Julien-en-Vercors; the ascent there is 2 km.

Culture and History

Since the 16th century, iron ore was transformed into metal in the Hameau de Tourtre; the water power of the Adouin was used there for numerous industries such as mills and sawmills. The Bois de l'Allier forest was used by charcoal burners who produced charcoal for the local metallurgy industry. The short, easy hike “Le hameau de Tourtre” leads to the hamlets of the valley and offers beautiful views of the surrounding area.

The venerable “Sully” lime tree adorns the square in Saint-Martin-en-Vercors.

L'Atelier de la Source produces cold-process care and antibacterial soaps, balms, and maceration oils from natural ingredients and wild plants. L'Atelier de la Source also offers all audiences a free, guided 30-minute tour of its soap laboratory.

Regional Products

The Ferme de Roche Rousse produces Bleu du Vercors-Sassenage AOP, Saint Marcellin IGP, and other dairy products such as cooked pressed cheeses, fresh cheese, faisselles, yogurt, milk jam, and raw milk. Visitors can discover the dairy products directly at the farm.
