Description    Deutsch  ·  English  ·  Français

The idea for "Suivez-moi" Cache series arose after various tours through France and is only a small selection of places of interest along a route.



The Bishop of Avranches, Aubert said to have built in 708 the shrine on the rocky island after him previously, according to legend, the archangel Michael appeared three times. Since then, the church attracts pilgrims and travelers from around the world.

The Klosterberg threatened to silt over the years, to give it its maritime character back, a restoration project was launched. 2015 the project was completed. Now the Mont-Saint-Michel is several times a year to the island.

The Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel has the highest tides in Europe.

At low tide the sea pulls up to 15 kilometers from the coast back. But be careful! Before you go on a discovery tour through the mud, one should therefore genauenstens inform the tide !!!

Tip: To get the tide to see, it is best to be about two hours before high tide at Mont-Saint-Michel.

About the newly created footbridge leads tidenunabhängig of Mont-Saint-Michel, but for a few days a year when especially high tides leave the Mont-Saint-Michel again to the island. (Note here that the access during this natural spectacle is then a good forty-five minutes is not possible.)


 Task: 

Make a beautiful photo of the silhouette of Mont-Saint-Michel. (Be creative!)

 Please log with foto and the coordinates of your viewpoint.

Logs without photo I am afraid to delete.

 

happy geocaching

Dieser Ort hinterlässt gemischte Gefühle bei mir: Einerseits sehr eindrücklich und schön, auch wenn das Wetter heute nicht mitspielte. Auf der anderen Seite halt wieder mal eine gigantische Touristenfalle, die Maschinerie läuft hier...
Ich habe mir darum einen Punkt etwas weiter ausgesucht. Für mich hat der Mont Saint-Michel eh mehr Reiz. Hier sm Point Roche Torin war es zudem sehr friedlich und ruhig.

Vielen Dank für diesen Virtuellen!
