Geowalk: Around L'Étacq and Le Pinacle

Around L’Etacq and Le Pinacle

Discover the deep time past of Jersey's north-west corner. Explore the features which show us that sea level and climate change is nothing new and the Anthropocene (the age of man) is upon us. Examine a major geological boundary, marking over 200 million years of rock formation and interesting periglacial features before walking up and around Les Landes to see bunkers and guns from the German Occupation during the Second World War, one of the Island's Mesolithic sites and the Neolithic stone axe factory at Le Pinacle.

This geowalk starts in the Faulkner Fisheries carpark.
