The resort in figures
Haut Vercors Nordic site
A vast Nordic domain linked between Villard, Corrençon and Herbouilly.
With 122 km of groomed, skating and classic trails, the Haut-Vercors Nordic ski area is known as one of Isère’s top cross-country ski areas!
Easily accessible from Bois Barbu (Villard de Lans) and Les Hauts-Plateaux (Corrençon), you can ski at your own pace, enjoying the silence and nature, far from the crowds!
The CO heritage trail is accessible to all cross-country skiers!
Skating or alternative?
Skating
Skating is the most recent form of cross-country skiing (1980s). To get around, you need to use the skating step. This is a movement similar to the one you make when ice skating or rollerblading.
Once you’ve found your balance, the sensation of gliding and speed is incomparable! A real fun sport for everyone. The little ones will quickly find their balance, while the older ones will need a little more time 😉
Biathlon is best practiced in skating, combined with rifle shooting. The Villard/Corrençon Nordic ski school offers introductory courses!

Cross-country skiing
Alternate cross-country skiing is the most“classic” form of cross-country skiing.
This sliding technique is performed with the skis parallel to each other and in the rails on the sides of the slopes provided for this purpose.
The skis are equipped with an anti-reverse system that allows the skis to move forward in the rails.
The step is very similar to walking, making it easy and accessible!
For the more athletic skier, simply increase the pace and the glide immediately becomes more technical and intense.
Discover this practice accessible to all on our ski area, with slope levels to suit everyone 😊
