펜데‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 천연기념물

A gravel path. A bit monotonous and technically challenging to ride on a bike. Wide tires are essential, and suspension is helpful. The view is fantastic. The cliffs of Ault are in front of you, the sea is to your right, and the nature reserve (salt marshes) is to your left, with many seabirds, horses, and other wildlife.

Here in Ault begin the chalk cliffs, which stretch all the way to Normandy and repeatedly appear as enormous cliffs.

The bay of summer, on our trip it was low tide.

Great swimming and surfing beach. Small town with lots going on.

Great panorama, but also depressing how fleeting everything is.

The town of Ault is located in a valley (a small valley which was created in a setback of cliffs). The succession of white chalk cliffs continues on the Normandy coast.

At Cape Hornu you can enjoy a panoramic view of the bay and its wildlife. You can follow the path along the coast, passing by the Chapelle des Marins, a small chapel dedicated to sailors who lost their lives at sea. You will also discover the charming town of Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, with this medieval street plan, its ancient ramparts and its colorful houses. It's a great way to experience the beauty and history of this area.

Cap Hornu is a cape located near Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, on the south bank of the Bay of Somme. The name Cap Hornu comes from the Picard word “hornu”, which means “horned” or “pointed”, and refers to the shape of the cape. The cape was also known as Cap Saint-Valery in the past. The history of Cap Hornu is closely linked to that of Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, which was a strategic port and a medieval town that witnessed many historical events. In 1066, William the Conqueror departed from Saint-Valery-sur-Somme with his fleet to invade England. In 1431, Joan of Arc was imprisoned in Saint-Valery-sur-Somme before being transferred to Rouen. In 1568, a massacre of Huguenots took place in Saint-Valery-sur-Somme after a battle between Catholics and Protestants
