Lieu CAROLLES

Follow the coastal path along the cliffs from Carolles-Champeaux to Saint-Jean-le-Thomas! This loop guides you through the cultural and natural charms of these villages... There are three Vauban huts on the cliffside coastal path. A fourth, on the heights of Jullouville, has just been renovated. Made entirely of stone, they were guardhouses in the 17th century, and were used to observe the movements of enemy ships during the First Empire.

NOT TO BE MISSED
- The Carolles hut
- Champeaux cabin
- Saint-Jean-le-Thomas cabin
