Marsh Birdwatching

From here you have a beautiful view of the Marais du Grand-Hazé, the largest marshy area in the Orne. It is labeled Sensitive Natural Space and can be visited on foot via a 7 km signposted loop.

It is the largest marsh in the Orne with 200 hectares. It is a real treasure trove for fauna and flora, where nearly 170 different species of birds use it as a breeding site. The best thing is to meet the staff who maintain the marsh: Camargue horses and Scottish cattle!

Just for the picture, this part of the swamp is prohibited for bicycles. Leave the bikes at the barrier and walk a few meters to get a good view of the marsh.

Old mill in the hollow of the Orne gorges ... you can have a drink there, on certain days, in a peaceful setting.

Saint-Aubert-sur-Orne is an old village, founded by the monks of Mont-Saint-Michel. Near the Orne, in front of the ford, they erected a church (around 800 AD) and named their spiritual master, St Aubert, to the land they were beginning to clear. Source: http://www.office-tourisme-putanges.com

Saint-Aubert-sur-Orne is an old village, founded by the monks of Mont-Saint-Michel. Near the Orne, opposite the ford, they built a church (around the year 800) and gave the name of their spiritual master, St Aubert, to the land they were beginning to clear. Saint-Aubert-sur-Orne was for centuries a dependency of the St-Etienne Abbey of Caen. At that time, peasants benefited from the acorns, a right consisting of the exploitation of acorns from the forest. This privilege was accompanied by a curious custom: every year the prosecutor of the Caen religious community paraded people and their pigs. Thus, he could estimate their property to better tax them.
