Port du Collet

Highlight • Other

It has a touch of Scandinavian style with its colorful houses.

Be careful, the footbridge is stepped on both sides. Nothing difficult with a regular bike, but potentially tricky if you're carrying 25 kilos of gear.

Gueffard Mill

Highlight • Other

The Gueffard mill was built before 1656, abandoned from 1931, then restored in 2023. The reconstruction of its wings allowed it to regain its former glory.
