The Cascades du Pont-ès-retours can be reached through a wooded area; there, the Vire makes its way over the rocks lying in the riverbed. The Cascades du Pont-ès-retours in Roullours are classified as a sensitive natural area (Espace Naturel Sensible). The watercourse at the Cascades du Pont-ès-retours is home to white-clawed crayfish; a biotope protection order prohibits the removal of this species.
Culture
The Moulin de Roullours is a grain mill on the Houlles stream, a small tributary of the Vire, and operated until 1970. Visitors can see the Moulin de Roullours in operation and admire its historic mechanism.
The washhouse of Roullours, located beside the stream, is characteristic of the region’s douits. The Roullours well features conical masonry.
