Hiking in Normandy between Yport and Fécamp

A beautiful hike in the land of cliffs in Normandy between Yport and Fécamp.

A beautiful hike between Yport and Fécamp, the only problem is that we stay quite far from the sea during the whole trip. All the hike takes place on a tarred road. We can nevertheless join the sea in the middle of the course by making a small detour. Yport and Fécamp are worth a look.
