The Couesnon is a small coastal river that flows into the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel. As you walk along its banks, approaching the coast, views of the incredible monument unfold one after another.

Hiking

The Greenway along the Couesnon offers a peaceful and pleasant bike ride in a picturesque setting. The small river meanders through the countryside and as you approach the coast, the view of the iconic Mont Saint-Michel suddenly opens up. A moment that invites you to pause as the silhouette of the abbey comes ever closer. The path is lined with fields and the gentle river bank, making the ride particularly relaxing. Ideal for a relaxed day on the bike, with the majestic fortress as your destination.
