Hiking
The Grotto is one of the remains of the unfinished canal of Louis XIV, who wanted to bring water from the Eure to the Palace of Versailles. You can admire the impressive arch and the siphon which were built by Vauban and his engineers at the end of the 17th century. You will appreciate the peaceful landscape and the fascinating heritage of this region.
