Zipline Vercors, Giant zipline in Vercors Mountains, France
Zipline Vercors is a long descent cable ride in the Vercors Mountains that drops steeply down the mountainside in about two minutes. The route follows a wooded slope with open views across the surrounding range as you descend.
Access to the zipline goes through the Gonçon chairlift, which was built in the 1960s as part of efforts to develop Méaudre as a winter sports destination. The zipline itself was added later to expand the outdoor activities available to visitors.
The zipline reflects the outdoor activity traditions of the Vercors region, where mountain sports have been a natural part of how people spend time outdoors. Both locals and visitors use such activities to experience the landscape in different ways.
You reach the top using a chairlift, and the descent takes about two minutes from start to finish. It helps to check the conditions ahead of time and understand what your fitness level allows before choosing which route to take.
This zipline lets you choose between two riding styles depending on whether you want maximum speed or a gentler pace. Each style transforms how you experience the same route down the mountain.
