Hiking

Birthplace of J.F. Millet, Gruchy is a beautiful little pedestrian cul-de-sac hamlet, to be visited on foot for the pleasure of the eyes and the calm that reigns there. Do not try to enter by car or other motorized vehicle, access to the sea or to Castel Vendon is only possible via a small path of stones and gravel...the beauty of the cliff and the landscape deserves a few steps
