Sand Fences in the Dunes de la Slack

Highlight • Structure

Picket fences serve as coastal protection. They stabilize the dunes and protect them from erosion. The fence slows the wind, and sand collects around the pickets and settles behind the fence.

Fantastic tour with a very varied landscape, as there is not only sand in the Dunes de la Slack, but also forest and ponds. Again and again fantastic views of the sea and the Cote d'Opale. In addition, the view of the past (bunker, Napoleon's retreat, ...).
