St. Aubin - view from bunker revealed by furze fire

Up from the railway walk into woodland we reach an area burnt by a recent wild fire which has made accessible an old WWII german occupation bunker. Good views over the church on the hill, village and harbour. I hope they keep a pathway clear and don't let the gorse regrow to this historic lookout point.

I'm getting a "Third Party Content" warning which is a bit odd - at the time of uploading the music was available for use under a free "Creative Commons" licence!

Thanks - I haven't been inside but I've seen a good model of the tunnels in the bunker at Noirmont and it looks like an impressively large place.

All the best for 2010

Well worth the walk, yes.

Thanks

I used to play in this small bunker when i was growing up in St.Aubin. I know all the bunkers and tunnels in the area. Found a german stick grenades in places like Noirmont etc. Great childhood.

Wonderful vistas in your video. I loved St. Aubin when i visited Jersey in 2005 and will stay in that area next time I come. I will be sure to look for the path uncovered by the fire.

The escape shaft from the tunnels comes out somewhere very close to there ,I've been up from inside and came out opposite the church but I wasn't sure how to get to it from the outside. What a spectacular view though,nice video!!
