Falaises d'Étretat
Iconic Cliffs of Étretat
This collection highlights the dramatic geological formations of the Alabaster Coast in Normandy. The landscape features three natural arches—Porte d'Aval, Porte d'Amont, and the massive Manneporte—carved from white chalk by the English Channel. Central to the scenery is L'Aiguille, a 70-meter-high solitary needle rock. These formations inspired numerous Impressionist works by Claude Monet and Gustave Courbet. The area is accessible via the GR21 hiking trail, offering elevated views of the vertical cliffs and pebble beaches.
