This walk takes you to the heart of walnut country.
Walnut groves profoundly shape the local identity, as does the traditional architecture of the Dauphiné region, recognizable by its open-sided granaries once used for drying crops. Scattered amidst the agricultural fields, the typical houses bear witness to this rich rural heritage.

Renowned for its quality, the Grenoble Walnut can be discovered in many forms, whether enjoyed plain or transformed into gourmet specialties such as cakes, wines or confectionery.
