The Col de la Machine (1,011 m) is one of the most spectacular and famous access gates to the entire Vercors massif. World-renowned for being the highest point of the legendary Combe Laval, this pass offers a steady climb (around 6% average gradient from Saint-Jean-en-Royans) that winds through a dense and majestic forest.
