The Trièves thanks its charm to its landscape, both homogeneous and contrasted and particurly well preserved.
With the valley of the Drac, the cliffs of the Vercors and the Dévoluy for its frontiers, the Trièves consists of small landscapes, shaped by milleniums of mens hands working, accessible by passing the mountain villages and bypassing the mountains.
The landscapes offer a spectacular contrast, undoubtedly unique, between the placidity of timeless countryside and impressive mountain panoramas on the background.
In the heart of this landscape the colours, the material and the shapes of the country architecture testify of the close and respectful relationship that the men and women have maintained with this country since time.
