Park in the church car park.
(S/E) From the car park, head away from the town hall, via Place de l'Église, and join Rue du Maréchal Foch, turning left towards the station.
(1) Cross the railway line and continue straight on towards Saint-Valery via the D111 until you reach the junction with the cycle path.
(2) At the crossroads, take the cycle path to the left (caution: shared space for cyclists and pedestrians).
At the large roundabout, cross over and continue on the cycle path on the right until you reach a dirt track about 300 m away.
(3) Take this dirt track on the right until you reach the tourist train railway line. Beautiful view of the Baie de Somme and the molières at the bottom of the bay (note: the deposits that can be seen along the dyke are brought in at high tide and are part of the "laisses de mer", a collection of natural debris and human waste transported by the sea).
(4) Turn right onto theGR®120coastal path, along the railway line, then turn left onto the dyke that goes around the Elluin marsh (a beautiful natural area rich in birdlife).
At the end of the dyke, continue to follow theGR®, turning left along the D940 road.
Turn right into the underpass beneath the road.
(5) At the tunnel exit, leave theGR® and continue straight ahead over the bridge towards the hamlet of Morlay (commune of Ponthoile).
(6) Take thefirst road on the right, then turn right again onto the D140.
(7) Just before the tourist train track, turn left onto a grassy path. Follow this path to the level crossing on the main railway line.
Caution! Abbeville-Boulogne line, no warning signals for approaching trains!
Rejoin the road, cross it and continue to the Pont le Dien fork.
(8) At the Nolette sign (hamlet of Noyelles-sur-mer), turn right onto the stony path and follow it straight ahead into this wetland area.
(9) At the entrance to Noyelles, in front of the decorated transformer, take the path along the Rio (small stream). At the junction with the tarmac road, go straight on (Rue du Riot) until you reach a barrier near the campsite.
(10) Turn left onto a grassy path and continue until you reach the back of the church.
At the road, opposite a beautiful castle, turn left and then immediately left again, in front of the town hall, to return to the car park (S/E).
