As in probably every other profession, there are a few so-called “black sheep” among the many honorable millers in the milling trade. The popular children's book author Otfried Preußler tells the following short episode in “The Flight into Egypt”: “And they didn't even get all the way to Klostergrätz that evening, but there was a mill on their way, the monastery mill - they stayed there until the next morning. At first the monastery miller was almost shocked when the k.k. Gendarmerie knocks on his door: There had been a certain dispute with a customer last week about a few sacks of milling material which had disappeared in the mill here in a completely inexplicable way […] but it could have been that he had been reported for it anyway – and now they’re coming to pick him up… then of course all the disputed milling sacks had immediately fallen from his mind, the monastery miller, just as [sergeant] Hawlitschek was now simply asking him for a place to stay for the night.”

Moulin Cadoux dates from the mid 1700s. Many of the mills in the Morvan have disappeared, but this one has been lovingly saved and restored.

In the Cousin Valley, between Avallon and Magny, you'll find plenty to love. The river itself flows over rocks and through forests. With its windmills, bridges and valley cool, this stretch of running is a real treat on a hot summer day, but any day of the year is a great day to run this river valley .
