Angling
There are miles of first category waters where trouts are particularly dominant while the many lakes (formerly gravel
pits) are home to some very large carps. Licences are required, especially
for first category rivers but assistance is always at hand at the local
tackle shop or bar.

Walking
The
well-established Randonnée Network of trails covers some of the most
spectacular scenery in Normandy with its numbered “GR” routes. While at
the other end of the scale, local tourist offices will be able to suggest
interesting circuits around their particular town or village.

Horse-riding
The horse is
king in Normandy. Whether you fancy a guided trek across the sand on the
Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel, witnessing the weekly parades at the Haras du
pin national Stud or enjoying an evening at the trotting races in Cabourg,
you’ll not go far before you notice Normandy’s love of horses.
