Picauville is surrounded by two rivers, the Ouve to the south and the Merderet to the east, and forms a peninsula in winter when the marshes are ‘white’. It rises to an altitude of 29 metres. The suggested route runs alongside the marshes before heading into the bocage along sunken lanes or ‘chasses’.

Departure from Rocheville (Manche)
This walk around Rocheville gives pride of place to paths and small roads. It passes through the Bois de la Grande Roche, the Bois de la Petite Roche and its covered walkway, which are real curiosities in the area. There are many passages through woods or forests, which are fairly sheltered from the sun and allow you to discover a slightly wilder side of the Cotentin. Some passages can be a little damp depending on the season, and hiking boots are recommended to prevent slipping.
