Weekend Trip to Honefleur and Etretat, France

In this adventure, we will take you to Honfleur and Etretat in Normandy (France). You will have the opportunity to witness a variety of landscape that includes coastlines, cliffs, harbours and old towns. The best way to explore all this spectacular scenery is to take a hike around the area.

On the first day, we will discover the charming town of Honfleur through a city walk and a short hike. Located on the Seine estuary, this town is sure to surprise you with its cobbled streets, half-timbered houses and an old harbour lined with magnificent slate-fronted houses. All these combine together in an extraordinarily picturesque setting.

The second day is even more amazing! We will hike along the grass-covered tops of a rocky coastline to witness breathtaking views of white limestone cliffs lining the sea. The stunning cliffs of Etretat are world-famous for their naturally formed archways. During the hike, you will also have views of the beaches and the English Channel. However, there is more to Etretat than just cliffs and beaches. It also has a picturesque old town with charming shops and an old market housed in a beautiful wooden hall. There is a lot to explore.

This is a family-friendly trip. The walks and hikes are easy to medium level of difficulty. There are alternative options for those who don’t want to take the full hike (for e.g. to hike a part of the cliffs and then spend time on the sea beach by yourself or to leisurely explore the town of Etretat by yourself).
