The Roulland Dam

Highlight • Structure

Built in 1957, this old dam only operated for 34 years, until 1991. Today, it is a beautiful place to walk, particularly by taking the 7.8 kilometer marked loop that leads there.

September 2, 2024,Boucle Bois d'Hainneville – Chemin du Val l'Abbé au départ de Ravenel

GPS and phone cut off at the Rouland dam.
So I didn't particularly follow the end of the course.
Apart from this problem, it's a nice course.
Well for a restart it stings a little 😂😂
