Head toward Greux, 1 km past Domrémy in the direction of VerdunPhoto: Club Vosgien Neufchateau, Club Vosgien
Your route dotted with traces of the past, churches, chapel and monuments will allow you a short immersion from the depression of the Meuse cliffs to the karst plateau of the Western Vosges.
Marking: yellow triangle.
Greux is a street village stretching along the left bank of the Meuse. It is crossed by the Roises stream.
The current church of Greux dates from 1734, the former destroyed during the Thirty Years' War.
The Bermont Chapel dates from the 11th century. Below is a pond fed by the St Thiébaut fountain.
At the edge of the woods a magnificent panorama over the Meuse plain and view of the basilica.
Author’s recommendation
Be careful when crossing departmental roads.
Make a stop at Domrémy la Pucelle for a visit.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
