The mudflat hike to Mont Saint-Michel usually starts at the Le Grouin du Sud headland near Genêts. This is the official starting point for guided tours through the bay, which lead across the mudflats to Mont Saint-Michel at low tide. The trail should only be undertaken with a certified mudflat guide, as the area is potentially dangerous due to tides, currents, and quicksand.

The Route du Grouin du Sud, also known as the "Customs Officer's Path," is a 10- to 11.5-kilometer-long coastal hike near Genêts and Vains. It leads through the impressive bay of Mont Saint-Michel and offers beautiful views of the sea, Mont Saint-Michel, and the Tombelaine rock along long stretches. The route is mostly circular and takes between two and a half and three and a half hours, depending on your pace. It runs through meadows, coastal paths, and small country roads. It is unpaved in places, so sturdy footwear is recommended. A cultural highlight is the Prieuré Saint-Léonard with its historic chapel.
