Discover Cahon
Accommodation in Cahon
When planning a trip to Cahon, you can consider two themes when choosing your destination: the La Trie Enchantée route and milling and grain processing. They appeal to different interests: a named route with listed facilities on the one hand, and flour production and mill history on the other. You can then choose a hotel based on the specific criteria for your stay.
La Trie Enchantée and route planning
La Trie Enchantée is a 14.5-kilometre route. A 2024 route listing gives this distance; route details may be updated locally. The distance is a useful starting point for planning your time. Compare the 14.5 kilometres with your plans for the day and check the latest route details before setting off.
The 2024 route map shows an information totem, a picnic area, a charging station, a car park, bicycle parking and a crossing of the Trie along the route. If any of these details are important to your plans, check the current route map.
The circuits and connections listed for the La Trie Enchantée route include the Véloroute No. 30 Vallée de la Somme. For cycle tourists, this is a named reference to consider when planning your own ride. As signage and the route may change, it is worth checking the latest information before setting off.
Mills, grain and regional products
In Cahon, Moulins Riquier processes locally grown wheat into a wide range of flours for artisan bakers and pastry chefs, as well as private customers. Grain processing is therefore a specific local focus alongside the routes. Moulins Riquier is also the exclusive supplier of Avocette flour for the Baguette de la Baie de Somme. This product relationship links wheat and flour with a named baguette and brings the culinary side of the milling work to life.
Visits and mill history
A visit to Moulin Riquier is available for groups of 10 to 15 people by prior arrangement and is subject to confirmation by the operator. If you plan a visit, arrange the booking and date with the operator in advance. Moulin Riquier developed from 1818 in connection with the water power of the Trie and grain production in the surrounding area. Its history is therefore linked to the use of water power and local grain production. For travellers interested in cultural and technological history, this offers a specific way to explore the history of milling.
Then check the hotel criteria that matter to you, such as location, room and service, directly with each accommodation provider.
