Walking in the area around La Cour de Haut

Gîte La Cour de Haut is an ideal base for hiking enthusiasts. The surroundings are characterized by the typical Norman bocage landscape with rolling hills, sunken lanes, forests, streams, and quiet country lanes. From the gîte, both short walks and longer day trips are possible.

One of the most beautiful routes is a stage of the GR22 , the famous long-distance hiking trail from Paris to Mont-Saint-Michel. The stage (22 km) from Saint-Pois to La Cour de Haut takes you through a varied landscape with beautiful vistas, small hamlets, and centuries-old hedgerows. What makes this route special is that the walk ends at the gîte. So, afterwards, you don't have to return to your car, but can immediately enjoy a drink on your terrace to unwind after a beautiful day of hiking.

Are you staying at La Cour de Haut? Then, by arrangement and for a small fee, we can take you to the starting point of the walk in Saint-Pois. This way, you can walk the entire stage without worrying about transport.

In addition to the GR22, we have mapped out numerous other hiking routes in the immediate vicinity. From a short walk of a few kilometers to a strenuous day trip: we are happy to advise you on the most beautiful routes, tailored to your wishes and the season.
