It is signposted for 14 km and divided into 3 parts : the tour of Cap Ferrat, the pine-forest and the Maurice Rouvier walk which links Saint JeanCap Ferrat to Beaulieu. At the tip of Cap Ferrat, you will find the 'Grand Hôtel du Cap' which is set amidst a stunning garden. Saint Jean Cap Ferrat has a zoological park which houses 300 animals which live in semi-freedom amongst the Mediterranean and tropical vegetation. You will discover crocodiles, big-cats, exotic birds... amongst others. Visitors can also wander along the beautiful port, opposite the wharf with numerous restaurants and bars.
