From the Stakes, you will quickly reach Sciotot. In front of you, a long beach of fine sand will lead you to Cap du Rozel from where you can admire a beautiful panorama of the surrounding beaches. The route then passes through the protected natural site of the Hatainville dunes. You will pass the Cap de Carteret which offers breathtaking panoramas before going back down to Barneville-Carteret and its marina.
