Description

Croquenot walk is one of the three hiking trails suitable for those who don’t have much time to spend in Saint-Quirin : indeed, it only takes an hour to do and it is also an « average » walk. Start at the abbey’s garden : there, you may follow the « croquenot » (hiking shoe) on a pink background, in the direction of the stream. Be amazed by the miraculous source and the wet iris field. Please be advised not to walk there as wet areas are fragile ! Then, you may walk pass the townhall : enjoy the former forest house and the field surrounded by stones. It is time now to go into the forest. You may reach a water tank : there will be another path leading to the village on your right (marked with a blue disc). You may not follow this path but the forest path instead. Be amazed by the outstanding view on the village. Then, you may cross a wooden bridge and follow the pathway leading to Charmille and Moulin streets. A few more steps and it’s over !
