Gresse-en-Vercors is the highest village in the Vercors Massif! It is located at an altitude of 1,205 metres and its summit, the Grand Veymont, reaches 2,341 metres.

Situated at the foot of several mountain ranges in the Pre-Alps, the village resort offers an exceptional panorama of the East Balcony of the Vercors and its breathtaking stone cliffs reminiscent of the Dolomites. Moreover, Gresse-en-Vercors is classified among the Great Landscapes of the Vercors. 

Stroll through this kingdom of greenery where you will find blue or yellow gentians, the queens of this little corner of paradise that have beautifully inspired the name of your holiday home in Gresse-en-Vercors. Their bridesmaids are the Venus Hoof Orchids and the Martagon Lilies. Accompanied by yellow tulips, all these flowers brighten up the mountain pastures and contribute to the nutritional quality of Gresse hay which can be eaten... in jelly! Yes indeed, it is one of the local specialities. 

As for fauna, the region used to be a haven for wolves, bears and lynx... But there is no need for panic, these species are mostly part of the collective memory and remain a legend peddled around the fireplace. 
On the other hand, black grouse or heather roosters, ibex and marmots are still there! The Vercors Natural Park also boasts 140 species of birds including raptors, such as the eagle or the hawk. 
 
Another wonderful universe is still taking shape with mountain lakes and their crystal-clear waters. The Lac de Monteynard - Avignonet has a nautical leisure center. Rivers, like the Gresse, are perfect for walks, swimming and trout fishing!

One of the seven wonders of the Dauphine region
In the galaxy of summits that surround your Gresse-en-Vercors holiday residence, there is the mythical Mont Aiguille. You will easily recognize it; it forms a high grassy plateau or else is topped with a sheet of snow. Take a good look at it, it resembles a beautiful molar!
