Couesnon dike

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Couesnon dike connects the mainland to Mont-Saint-Michel by crossing the polders. By bike, it offers a unique perspective of the bay and its expanses. This rolling, windy section gives the approach to the Mont its character.

From the Couesnon dam bridge, you have a wide-angle view of Mont-Saint-Michel and its bay. Make a short stop before setting off on the long road to Rennes.
