Always be sure to bypass the herds, while remaining calm while the dog identifies you, not caressing or threatening them.
Herd protection dogs
In the mountain pastures, the guard dogs are there to protect the herds from predators. When I hike, I adapt my behaviour by going around the herd and pausing so that the dog can identify me. Click here to see the video : c'est quoi au juste un chien de protection ?

Ambiance
This long hike is one of the most beautiful in the Vercors. You will gradually leave the slopes of the Col de Rousset station to reach the large wilderness of the Hauts-Plateaux du Vercors. The forest gradually gives way to pastures and their bucolic atmosphere. As the climb towards the Grand Veymont, the environment becomes more and more mineral, it is the domain of the ibexes that you will perhaps have the chance to observe. From the summit, the panorama is grand.
