A short hike along the sea in a protected environment and with beautiful views of the bay of Mont Saint Michel.
The starting point is the car park at the foot of Pignon Butor, at Carolles-Plage. The hike begins with steep stairs, separated by several points of view. An orientation table at the end of the ascent helps you find your bearings.
Then continue along the cliffs following the GR markings. There is also a sign indicating the direction of Vauban Cabin and the Lude Valley. (1) The Lude Valley is quickly reached and the trail descends into it. Once down in the valley, turn right and go to the beach for a glimpse of the cliffs and the Lude flowing into the sea. (2)
Retrace your steps to the GR and turn right at the little bridge over the Lude. There is a sign that reads 'Cabane Vauban'. The trail goes up the cliffs by a new staircase. Then head on to the Vauban Cabin, where you will find Mont Saint Michel and Tombelaine.
Follow the path in the opposite direction to return to the starting point.
