Add an ExtensionWhile most walking tours of Normandy and Brittany miss out on the magic of Honfleur, this Country Walkers tour brings you its spectacular coastal scenery during a stay in this charming harborside village. Here, you’ll explore the impressive cliffs of Étretat, the inspiration behind many of Monet’s Impressionist paintings. Moving on to Arromanches, you’ll traverse the scenic wind-swept dunes of the Norman coast—pausing to pay an inspirational visit to the historic site of the D-day landings with a local guide. Enjoy a scenic cliffside stroll above the unique tidal plains around Mont St. Michel, then explore this splendid island monastery with a local guide—winding your way through charming medieval back streets to the door of its 8th-century Benedictine abbey. During a two-night stay in historic St. Malo, you’ll experience the best of Brittany—including exquisitely fresh seafood, pristine sandy beaches, and ancient streets that showcase the rich history of this vibrant coastal region.
Country Walkers is proud to support the Association of Friends of Longues Abbey and its Gardens with a donation on behalf of each guest on this tour.

Beautiful country!! A few days were very difficult to walk on rugged coastal trails- one has to watch the ground instead of the views as terrain is rough-walking paths have many large rocks/boulders and vegetation stumps to maneuver around carefully to be safe from tripping or falling. There are inclines and declines that have to be carefully planned in order not to trip and fall. Then of course there was a day or two with an easier walk but one should be mindful that some days are more challenging. I was spoiled by the open pasture paths of the Cotswolds and was not prepared for this trip even though I am a avid walker. Not too much free time in the small towns which were really nice! I took two days off from walking in order to visit the towns instead of walking the coastal paths which was wonderful!! Glad we had that option as was happy to have a spa day and do some country shopping instead of country walking! All the hotels we stayed at were lovely and many choices for good restaurants- book ahead and remember dinner in France usually starts at 7:00 pm!
