The first tidal mill on the Rance was built in 1181 (Moulin du Lupin near Rothéneuf). These mills flourished between the 16th and 17th centuries. Today, few of these renewable energy sources remain. This route allows you to see the remains of two mills (Fosse Mort and La Herviais) and to stroll through this estuary, which is ideal for the construction of mills.

This route is a combination of sections from routes already suggested by Visorando. Thefirst section follows the Rance along theGR®34C, whilst thesecond completes the circular route through the countryside, mostly along shaded paths through the woodland.

A lovely walk along the banks of the Rance and through the beautiful Bois de Rochel forest. This walk combines various routes suggested by Plouër-sur-Rance Town Hall.
