Sand dunes

Magnificent and very useful...

Dunes embellish the Rétais scenery for over 20 kilometres

They are the ideal setting for iodised walks or an introduction to the pleasures of the beach: here is an open space to be preserved! Marram grass is planted so as to protect dunes from climatic attacks.

Branches on the soil and "garnivelles" - lattice fences - are used to stabilize the sand.

"Sand dunes‏ I love admiring them but I never climb them. It's forbidden and anyway I want to protect them!"
