Tips from the Community
Beautifully decorated, and so is the freight car. There's obviously a functioning institution here. The lawns at the rest areas are mowed, the trash cans are empty - the shoulders along the tracks are mowed - I'm pleasantly surprised by so much care. And now the train stations are renovated and in use - that's great.

A worthwhile climb. Great views over the city. There's also a memorial to the soldiers of the 51st Scottish Division who fell here.

Itinerary with almost no roads (mainly dirt and coastal paths through fields and small sections of departmental and municipal roads) in very pretty natural environments. Especially the beach and the surroundings of Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer! However, some sad old fly-tipping and rarer more recent ones on the coastal paths and other points can be annoying. Also pay attention to the weather on the day of the outing and the previous days because some sections can become very muddy + some passages in the vegetation can transform, with growth, into slightly narrower and difficult to use spaces (mainly coastal paths). The erosion of the cliff seems to be accelerating in some parts and could make access to certain areas of the coastal paths more complex or even cut off in the (fairly) near future. Allow a good seven hours (minimum) in total with a few short breaks.

The Durdent offers a picturesque setting for cycle tourists. This serene waterway winds through green valleys dotted with charming Norman villages, including the particularly peaceful Vittefleur.

From this point of view, you can admire the town of Veules-les-Roses and its river, the Veules, famous for being the shortest in France. You can even see it flow into the sea nearby.
