Renowned for its à la carte trail concept, the Ut4M offers with the 40 Series, four races which offer immersion in each ultra massif. As you can imagine, the shorter the distance, the faster people go. But this trace will allow you to scout at your own pace.
The Ut4M 40 Vercors explores the trails of the eponymous massif. This public route covers almost 40 kilometers punctuated by approximately 2,400 meters of elevation gain.
It is an invitation to immerse yourself in the emblematic landscapes of the Vercors: cross the maquis, run through green pastures, climb the high plateaus, and brush past breathtaking limestone cliffs, particularly at the legendary Col de l 'Bow.
The start is given in Seyssins, where the route quickly gains height towards Saint-Nizier and Moucherotte. From the ridges, the views of the Vercors plateau are impressive. You continue with a climb to Pic Saint-Michel, where a long winding descent begins towards Saint-Paul de Varces. The trail ends in Vif, after having conquered the Uriol mountain.
