Detour to make

Using the power of moving water to drive a mill wheel is an ancient invention that dates back to pre-Christian times. Thanks to such a construction, human or animal muscle power could easily be replaced by a watercourse - natural or artificial - in order, for example, to grind grains into grain. There are essentially two different ways to drive water mills: either the water simply hits the blades of the water wheel from below to set it in motion; or the water flow is guided above the wheel and falls onto the blades, with this design there is greater efficiency due to natural gravity.

As Jacques' pictures show, there are no spectacular highlights to be found here, but Paul put it very aptly with "A place where you can linger". Exactly the right place for the hiker, who can interrupt his tour here to linger a little and will certainly enjoy it.

A beautiful place with quietly flowing water and wildflowers. A place where it is good to linger.

Bike path and hiking trail very well laid out! Along the track, we can see Dolmens, in particular that of Alrait.

Small town of character with, on a rocky promontory, an old fortified castle and its fortified Romanesque church. There are many dolmens around the village and a pleasant stretch of water.
