Crossing the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel

Crossing the Bay with Romain Pilon, guide

Crossing the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel and joining the Mont on a hike is an unforgettable experience. Guide Romain Pilon offers hikes from April to October depending on the tides (and in winter on request).

Let's discover the Mt. differently when arriving from the East when the sea has withdrawn. Hikers can walk barefoot in the sand that a few hours ago was still covered by the water. The approach of Mont Saint-Michel is done gently, and all will have time to soak up the majesty of the Bay. Everyone will be able to see the changing colors that evolve constantly with the passage of cloudy and reflections in the water.

 

Beyond the safety it offers during a crossing, the guide can tell you the story of these knickknacks and the paths of pilgrimage that lead to Mt. Romain Pilon, a certified guide will not fail to introduce you to the sands moving with a show of stagnation. The shifting sands that Victor Hugo has so well described are not a legend and you can experience it, safely, on the indications of your guide.

The Bay of Mont Saint-Michel also has an extremely rich fauna and flora. Birdwatchers will be
filled and discoveries will multiply in a few hours. If you go through the Rock of Tombelaine before
to reach the Mont, you will be able to observe the Bay from a unique point of view before discovering a very particular flora and perhaps to see the nests of the breeding birds that have elected "home".

The small group of hikers will be led to the doors of the Mount and will be able to continue the crossing by discovering the ramparts, nooks and crannies of this fortress to the abbey which rises 80 meters high in a bay that you will rediscover everything.

It is in this that the experience of a hike through the sands of the Bay will give you several points of view on the Mount and the Bay that surrounds it.
