Sommet dunes d'Hatainville

The Hatainville dunes summit rises above the Normandy coastline, providing panoramic views across the English Channel and the surrounding agricultural landscapes.

The sand dunes of Hatainville have developed over thousands of years through continuous wind and maritime action along the Cotentin Peninsula of northwestern France.

Local naturalists conduct regular walking tours to educate visitors about the delicate ecosystem and the traditional methods used to preserve the dune environment.

Orientation tables at the summit help visitors identify geographical landmarks and neighboring villages visible from this elevated observation point.

The summit hosts specialized dune plant species that have adapted to thrive in the constant sea winds and salt spray conditions.
