The variety of Normandy

The Normandy is known for gastronomical highlights such as Cider, Calvados and Camembert, for fabulous cities and monuments, but also for its breathtaking and scenic variety. We catcher them and present them to you on our cycling trip. It leads us gregariously from east to west and back again. From the festinating world metropole Paris, the Seine is flowing across the Normandy, through mighty valley cuts and wide loops to the English Channel. Already impressionist artists were fascinated by the capital of Normandy, Rouen, with its half-timbered houses, the ruins of the Jumièges, the Alabaster coast and the beaches of Deauville. Historically still very present: the landing beaches and the D-day.

Route characteristics: Side roads, agricultural road, partly cycling paths, no long hilly parts but from time to time.
