Blombay Mill

Car park next to Saint-Rémi Church in Blombay, situated on the village’s main street.

(S/E) Head down the main road, the D109, heading south-west. Ignore two turn-offs to the left until you reach a crossroads (with a wayside cross).

(1) Leave the D109, but continue in the same direction. Head uphill to the mill, which is situated near the road and surrounded by trees.

(2) From the mill, turn left, heading south-east, onto a track that joins the D9.

(3) Take this road to the right until the next fork in a bend (elevation 276).

(4) Leave the D9, turn right, and head down to the hamlet of Belzy.

(5) Turn right onto the road, ignore the first track on the left, and continue for about 1 km.

(6) Turn left onto a track and join the D20.

(7) Follow it to the right to reach Cernion and its Saint-Quentin Church. Pass the town hall.

(8) Turn right onto Rue de l’Arbre, then, on leaving the village, turn left. Ignore the first road on the left and continue heading due north. At the next Fork in the road, take the left-hand fork and you’ll reach a junction with a track (elevation 280).

(9) Turn right onto the dirt track and head for the windmill you passed on the way out.

(2) Return along the same path you took on the way there, turning left and heading in the opposite direction, to get back to the village (S/E).

This walk can be done by mountain bike.

The Blombay Mill, built in the 16th century, can be visited by appointment. (Contact details available on site).
