    Hiking

    The weir on the river **Couesnon** in front of Mont-Saint-Michel is part of a major project to restore its original island character. It regulates the flow of the Couesnon and helps transport sediment deposited in the bay back out to sea. At the same time, the structure is a popular promenade and viewpoint with an impressive view of Mont-Saint-Michel and the tide-shaped landscape.
