Vauban Hut at Carolles

Highlight • Historical Site

The Vauban cabin is part of a network of lookout posts set up in the 17th century, located along the Channel coast. It takes its name in reference to the military architect Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban (1633 - 1707).
This great architect of the king was charged by Louis XIV with fortifying the French coasts in the face of the English threat.

Sard Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Rocher du Sard lies above the Vallée du Lude. This striking granite rock rises about 70 meters above the sea and offers a commanding view of the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel.

Local legend says that the rock was a refuge for the Devil during his battle with the Archangel Michael—hence its nickname, Rocher du Diable.

Sturdy shoes and sure-footedness are particularly helpful on the section along the coast. In part, the path goes over rocks and scree.

Landed in Carolles and did a hike, which is included on the flyer for the municipal campsite as well as in the Rother hiking guide.
The coast here, as in Brittany, is super super exciting. Behind every bend it looks different and offers itself to be photographed. The clouds and the play of light on the water are also mega! …
