A wonderful tour from Les Sables. First, we followed the good paths through the autumnal Marrais, then we plowed through the sand in the dunes, which was very strenuous. Finally, we returned along easy paths. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to take photos, but the impressions will surely remain in our memories.
