Fewer and fewer trails accessible by mountain bike (trees across, barbed wire signs, etc.) because of the lord who privatizes as much as possible

It is a ruined tower dating from the Middle Ages and part of a fortified castle. The tower offers a panoramic view of the coast and the Havre de la Vanlée, a salt marsh where sheep graze.

The Notre-Dame church in Bréville-sur-Mer is a medieval Catholic building, from the 2nd half of the 12th century. The nave and the choir were built in the 2nd half of the 12th century. The bedside is rectilinear. The choir was restored in the 15th century. The church has large windows from the 18th and 19th centuries. The southern Romanesque portal dates from the second half of the 12th century and the north portal from the beginning of the 13th century. The tower, restored in the 15th century, which has only one long and simple window ending in a straight lintel on each side, is topped by an octagonal stone spire. The latter has on each side a long and narrow dormer window made up of two columns resting on the base of the spire supporting a small arcade and a triangular eaves. The transition from the square to the octagon is made by a sort of half-pyramid housed in the corners. The church houses a 12th century bas-relief, an 18th century preaching pulpit, statues: Virgin and Child (14th century), Saint Helier (15th century). The Saint-Hélier Fountain is located near the northeast corner of the Notre-Dame Church cemetery. According to legend, the body of Saint Helier, a hermit in the 6th century in Jersey, was washed up in a lead coffin on the shore of Bréville. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89glise_Notre-Dame_de_Br%C3%A9ville-sur-Mer

This natural and wild space is made up of salicornia, salt meadows, dunes and (a few sheep). You'll run through varied terrain where there's always something to see. Along the dune peninsula, you can observe the meeting of the Vanlée and the sea.
