Circuit de la Brèche au Diable

The Circuit de la Brèche au Diable is a hiking route in Normandy that passes through wooded areas and open countryside with several viewpoints overlooking the surrounding region. The path connects different landscape types and showcases the typical vegetation of this part of France.

The site was inhabited in prehistoric times, as shown by archaeological findings of shelters and tool marks. These discoveries suggest the area was used by humans across many centuries.

The Normandy region surrounding the trail maintains strong connections to local traditions through its natural reserves, architectural heritage, and regional cheese production.

The trail is well-marked and can be walked year-round, though wet conditions are likely after rain. Sturdy footwear is recommended to walk safely on the natural ground.

Distinctive rock formations along the path create natural frames for viewing the landscape beyond. These geological structures have formed over a long time and give the trail its characteristic appearance.
