This short walk between two villages in Bessin will allow you to discover the beautiful Normandy countryside. It is not particularly difficult. It mainly follows footpaths or farm tracks and a few roads with little traffic. Only the 150 m section on the D153 is a little busier.

Starting from Ryes, this route combines small country lanes in the Bessin plain, the sea and history. It will introduce you to several facets of this agricultural and tourist region through its beaches and its turbulent history, the scale of which is illustrated by the remains of the artificial port of Arromanches.

A short, easy walk offering views of the Bessin coast between Arromanches and Manvieux. You will have a commanding view of Arromanches and its artificial harbour and walk along the coastal cliffs. But be careful not to get too close to the cliffs as there is a risk of collapse.

This short walk will allow you to discover Asnelles, a small coastal village, and Arromanches, a small seaside town with its artificial harbour, where traces of the D-Day landings are still clearly visible.

The return journey will take you along the paths of the Normandy countryside with a glimpse of the coastline.

This circuit is an encounter between nature and history. A superb route along one of the most beautiful beaches in Normandy. It combines paths through woods, fields, orchards and pastures, and also takes in this important place of remembrance where thousands of American soldiers landed to liberate France from Nazi occupation. A visit to the American military cemetery is a must. You can also stroll along the beautiful Omaha Beach.
