Holidays in Normandy
Location and orientation
Normandy is a region in France that is located in the very northwest, directly on the English Channel and on the Atlantic Ocean. It is made up of the departments of Calvados, Eure, Orne, Manche and Seine-Maritime and has several towns worth seeing. The capital of Lower Normandy is Caen, that of Upper Normandy Rouen. Cherbourg-Octeville and Le Havre are important ports on the English Channel. Other important towns are Alencon with its medieval quarter and the elegant seaside resort of Deauville.
The island regions off the mainlandNormandy does not only extend over the French mainland, but reaches partly up to the Channel Islands. A particularly famous Normandy island is Mont Saint-Michel with its old town and monastery of the same name. The island is easily accessible on foot or by car at low tide. But at high tide it is completely washed around by the sea, so you should remove your vehicle from the parking lot outside the city in good time.
Travelers and Activities
The so-called Norman Switzerland is a popular hiking destination and reveals to you a varied landscape of hills and forests. For walks along the coast you can use the European long-distance hiking trail E9. It offers hiking possibilities as far as Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands and runs along the North Sea and English Channel coasts. The long-distance hiking trail along the Atlantic coast to the Iberian Peninsula takes you in the other direction.
Travel long distances by bicycle through NormandyThe European long-distance cycle route EuroVelo 4 provides a kilometre-long route leading to Calais, Düsseldorf and Bruges. For those who prefer to cycle inland, there is the Avenue verte which runs along the Seine to Paris.

Things to know
The Norman cuisine is especially known for Camembert, Cidre and Calvados. Cidre is a sparkling wine made from apples and is the ideal drink on warm summer evenings. Calvados is an apple brandy from the region of the same name. Camembert is made from cow's milk and is often served with wine and grapes. If you order fresh fish in the restaurant, be sure to try the traditional Norman sauce with it.
Rough climate for varied holidaysDue to its location on the English Channel and the Atlantic Ocean, Normandy is a country with a strongly changing climate. Once the sun shines, then it rains again. You should therefore always bring a rain jacket with you.

Top 5 travel tips

Visit Bayeux and its surroundings and one of the most beautiful places in France. For about a millennium, the tapestry of Bayeux, depicting the conquest of England by the former Duke Wilhelm the Conqueror, has attracted visitors from all over the world to the small town. However, this cultural treasure is by no means the only thing worth seeing here: the old capital of the Bajocasses, a Gallic tribe, is also known for the production of individual embroideries and porcelain works. What is often forgotten by the idyll in Bayeux is the fact that in 1944 the city was the provisional capital of France.
2. The cliffs of the alabaster coastThe department of Seine-Maritime is famous for its impressive cliffs on the famous alabaster coast, for its apple trees and thatched houses and for the green areas of the Pays de Caux. Here is also the abbey of Jumièges, which Victor Hugo called the most beautiful ruin in France. The local restaurants offer culinary specialities such as herring from Le Tréport or fish soup from Dieppe and invite you to linger.
3. Sport in wild natureIn Manche, which is called the "Land of Wonders" and the "Land of Freedom", you can practice almost any sport and discover wild, protected natural landscapes. You will also follow in the footsteps of D-Day - the day on which more than 800,000 armed forces landed in Normandy.
4.recreation at the English ChannelThe Département Calvados, in which Bayeux is located, is named after the "Plateau de Calvados" in front of it, which is a reef. In the north of the region runs the English Channel and the landscape called Bessin offers visitors pure relaxation!
5. Discover historical sightsIn Liesieux and the surrounding area, which is also located in the department of Calvados, many (historical) sights await you. For example the Chapelle du Carmel, various half-timbered buildings and mansions and the cathedral Saint-Pierre, which was built between 1170 and 1250. The cathedral also has a Romanesque-Gothic south tower from the 16th century and various museums await your visit: At the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire, for example, you can admire archaeological, iconographic and ethological exhibits.
