Aurimont an undiscovered village

Sunday was blue skies bright and sunny so we decided to explore the hills overlooking a ruined 12th century chateau that we pass on our cycling routes.

Discovered a really picturesque village called Aurimont perched on top of a hill that seemed to be untouched for centuries.

We went for a walk downhill on a marked footpath and soon discovered the remains of what apparently used to be another complete village. Further on we could see the ruined chateau plus another (in good order) looking down on us. We will come back next week armed with proper walking boots and camera.
