Located in the municipality of Viuz-en-Sallaz, the Mont Vouan site includes a group of seven millstone quarries classified as historical monuments on 11 March 2009<\/a>. Exploited from the late Middle Ages to the end of the 19th century, these milling mills bear witness to a very active industrial activity and remain unique in south-eastern France as some of them extend over several hundred metres.<\/p>\n

The loop that I propose here joins the “Meuli\u00e8res \u00e0 Vachat” then comes back on its steps to go up to the “Meuli\u00e8res de Grande Gueule”. The route is very easy since it does not exceed 400 m of cumulative gain and is not dangerous. It is worth noting the presence of a small steep passage just before the Meuli\u00e8res de Grande Gueule, but it’s secured by a barrier.<\/p>\n
