Maniquerville, Gerville and Les Loges circular

The route mainly consists of walking on tarmac, with a short section in the Bois des Loges. From the car park at the start, there is a view of the Château de Maniquerville (now a hotel). At the beginning of the route, visit the small but charming Église Saint-Martin de Maniquerville. In Gerville, the Church of Saint-Michel is closed and cannot be visited. The Church of Notre-Dame in Les Loges is also worth a visit, as is the old "Les Loges/Vaucottes-sur-Mer" railway station, which houses old carriages and locomotives.
