Hemp was an indispensable raw material during the milling period here. Its fibers were strong and resilient, and they were processed into all kinds of products, such as clothing, bags, and cloths. The hemp mill helped separate the fibers from the other plant parts and prepare them for further processing.

This mill has a unique water supply: perpendicular to the channel and via an overhead chute made of granite sleepers forming a gutter and held together with iron keys. The mill floor and its paving are preserved. A second cascading mill below is in ruins. The condition of the building helped determine the architectural basis for the restoration of the Augerolles mill. The roof was thatched. In the 1940s, during the Second World War, it was already in poor condition.

The waterfalls extend over several stages. In the upper part of the valley, the mighty boulders of the 'Champs de Pierres' are also worth noting.

Great ride of the day

Bourganeuf is a small medieval town created by the Hospitallers. It is also the third city in France to have seen the appearance of electricity, hence its nickname the city of lights. The town even houses an electrification museum, in addition to its castle, its church and its characteristic Zizim tower.

A tour that can be done with suitable shoes to descend the steep path. The boots are recommended for two who want to make beautiful POVs closer to the falls.

Flanked by woods and meadows, this valley and its series of waterfalls are a pleasant stop on your walk.

The waterfalls stretch for just over 4 kilometers and are a great place to sit and reflect while listening to the deafening din of rushing water.
