Chemin des Douaniers

The "Customs Officers' Trail" along the Normandy coast is a real highlight for hikers. Here you can enjoy constantly changing views of the steep chalk cliffs and the deep blue sea, which always offer new perspectives. Whether you start in Étretat or choose the cape as your end point, this trail has a lot to offer. The contrast between the green meadows and the rugged cliffs that drop directly into the sea is particularly impressive.The trail is easy to walk and takes you past some of the most beautiful viewpoints on the Alabaster Coast. You hike along narrow paths that meander through the landscape and are repeatedly rewarded with fantastic panoramas. The coast changes depending on the tides and weather, and each section of the trail offers its own little surprise.A perfect place to take a deep breath and enjoy the wild beauty of Normandy to the fullest.
