Hiking toward a
Sunset over Grenoble
In the northern Vercors, the viewpoints over Grenoble and its neighbouring massifs, Chartreuse, Belledonne, Écrins, are reached in one to two hours of walking.
The Moucherotte is the regular meeting point for Grenoble locals, and the Bec de l'Orient drops you straight into the Isère valley.
The Molière plateau also offers a wide-open view.
At the long-awaited sunset hour, the light is striking.
During a bivouac in the Vercors, here is a photo retrospective of a sunset, of the night lights of Grenoble, and of a sunrise:
If you would like to discover new viewpoints on a hiking weekend or an outing at nightfall, you can contact us to head out with a mountain professional from the Pied Vert team.
Dawn and dusk are also two of the best moments in the day to watch Vercors wildlife.
