Description

This itinerant walk will take you to some of the most emblematic sites in the Suisse Normande region, which covers the departments of Calvados and Orne.

The 113-kilometre route can be split into 6 stages, with stops in Thury-Harcourt (Le Hom), Clécy, Pont d'Ouilly, Saint Philbert sur Orne and Condé en Normandie...

On this GR de Pays® - Tour de Suisse Normande, voted France's favourite GR® in 2023, you'll discover paths with breathtaking panoramas: Les Rochers de la Houle, le Pain de Sucre or les Roches d'Oêtre... it's a bit of a climb at times, but you're sure to fall under the spell of this route!

Come and take a walk along these paths between Calvados and Orne and discover some unexpected landscapes, with meanders, deep gorges and mountainous terrain, not forgetting the fauna and flora along the way, such as the otter and the pearl mussel, both protected species, or the salmon that may well end up on your plate during a well-deserved lunch break after all that effort.

Small balcony with garden furniture. LABEL VELO Concerning the current sanitary conditions, We ensure a meticulous cleaning and decontamination of the premises. Each object likely to have been handled is disinfected with alcohol wipes (remote control, door knobs, hair dryer, switches and furniture edges, chairs, etc.) The sanitary facilities: shower, shower walls, taps, basins and toilets are cleaned and disinfected with a suitable product such as Sanytol or similar. The premises are aired half a day between each rental and a spray of aerosol and textile disinfectant is carried out after each departure. The carpets, if washable, are machine washed at 60°, otherwise they are steam cleaned. All colored linen is washed at 60° with the addition of a professional linen disinfectant. White linen is washed at 90° with the addition of a professional linen disinfectant. Curtains and cushions are washed between 2 rentals with the addition of disinfectant. The surfaces: table, work plan are cleaned and disinfected with Sanytol or similar products. All this work of preparation to better welcome you takes time, you will understand the need to block between a departure and your arrival several hours to ensure your safety completely. If the whole gite is rented or if it is a guest room, the vacant time may require up to a full day. We provide soap at every water point, hydro-alcoholic gel in the entrance, disinfectant wipes and surface sprays. We had to remove most of the books, leaflets and decorations from the house to limit cleaning and disinfection. What remains is in a plastic bag and can be easily disinfected.
