There are lovely routes all over the area inland of Deauville,
without having any specific destination. Here are my favorites:
 | From the Church...follow the D278 through Saint Arnoult.
At the Round, take the
direction "Tourgeville, Dezoule", which keeps you on the
278. Leaving St.
Arnoult you will cross the D27 highway. There are no traffic lights so
be careful. Now this is where road 278 becomes lovely and fun.
Shortly you will see a crossroad. Make sure take the fork to the left
which will keep you on the 278. (Direction "St. Hillaire la
Thillaye" and "Point l'Eveque").
 |
Not too far onwards you will see a sign to your right
"Chemin de l'orgeil". Take this quiet shaded road past
properties and domains until you come out on a very large road.
This is the D275. Turn right and enjoy the mostly downhill ride
until the same crossroad from which you can now go back to Deauville by
choosing that direction. |
 |
If you do not take "Chemin de l'orgeil" and
instead continue on the 278, you will have a bit of an uphill, and then
there will be another unkown little country road at your right called
"Chemin de Coq". This is really a lovely route.
It's also very shaded and secluded, but every once in a while it will
open to wide vistas of the most beautiful properties with handsome
horses and healthy cows. This road goes on after crossing some
larger roads. Take it at least passed 2 crossings. At the
second you might turn right and you are actually on the D275 again but
much higher. Enjoy the mostly downhill ride to the crossroad. |

You might want to venture all the way to Beaumont-en-Auge.
Go ahead, but it really is quite uphill. |
