Discover the ruins of the old fortifications, watched over by a massive keep built by the King of England during the Hundred Years’ War. In this little haven of greenery on the Cotentin Peninsula, there are plenty of activities available: canoeing and kayaking, archery, climbing, hiking, mountain biking, a treetop adventure, fishing, a medieval fair, and much more.
Bonus: The Forest of Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte with its ancient trees, including beech, holly and Scots pine. It’s one of the only forests in la Manche that’s open to the public, and is well worth a visit!
