BALADE DÉCOUVERTE "LES MOULINS DES VAUX-DE-CERNAY"
Go there and contact
If the Chevreuse Valley is famous as a walking place, attracting Parisians and Francilian in bad greenery, the corner of the Vaux-de-Cernay is certainly the jewel. The monks of the Abbey of the Vaux-de-Cernay abbey undertook, by settling along the Ru des Vaux, wonderful hydraulic developments. After a passage - preferably by car, because the road is dangerous on foot - at the Abbey of Cernay, the walk, completely swamped, begins in the car park, which is attached to the abbey wall, which allows to join the GR. Rambouillet station or Saint-Rémy-les-Chevreuse. Then we follow the ru, and we discover four mills successively. The tour guide is instructive and details both the natural environment and the operation of mills. The walk extends into the forest, where the alder is observed, then in the valley, and finally in the Maréchaux quarry, before joining the starting point. You will be reminded here frequently that landscape painters, in the last part of the nineteenth century, have come to find inspiration here. An immersion in history and nature, very popular, and a real heart.
