Between Brittany and Normandy, this cycling tour reconciles the two great regional rivals through their superb bucolic roads and their shared history in a pleasant itinerary that will allow you to enjoy every moment on the saddle.
Without much difficulty cycling-wise, this trip focuses on historical heritage: thousand-year-old villages, the places where Cartier and Champlain left for America, World War II sites, including the D-Day beaches... here, every street corner is filled with history!
The highlight of your stay will undoubtedly be the arrival at Mont-Saint-Michel, whose remarkable abbey is on the UNESCO World Heritage List and is one of the most visited attractions in France.
Along the way, you can stop at the Christian-Dior Museum in Granville and at Deauville Beach, which has been well known since 1923 for its popular boardwalk called Les Planches. Let hundreds of miles of history unfold before you!
