Overview

Leaving Bayeux, we set off on a scenic ride through the Normandy countryside, following small backroads rarely traveled by tourists. We pass through charming villages, where stone farmhouses, rolling fields, and apple orchards paint a timeless picture of rural Normandy.

As we approach the coast, a hidden path suddenly opens onto Omaha Beach, revealing its vast, windswept shoreline in a breathtaking moment of surprise. We pause to take in the historic landscape before continuing toward the American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer. Here, 9,387 white crosses stand in perfect alignment, a powerful tribute to the soldiers who gave their lives for freedom.

After this moving visit, we take another peaceful countryside road back to Bayeux, winding through serene farmland and hedgerows once crossed by Allied troops. With more time to absorb the beauty and history of the region, this electric bike journey offers a deep, personal connection to the stunning landscapes of Normandy.

What To Expect

Cathedrale Notre-Dame

Standing at the heart of Bayeux, the stunning Bayeux Cathedral is a masterpiece of Norman and Gothic architecture. Consecrated in 1077 in the presence of William the Conqueror, this grand cathedral played a key role in medieval history. Once home to the famous Bayeux Tapestry, it boasts intricate stained-glass windows, soaring arches, and remarkable Romanesque details. Its impressive facade and towering spires dominate the skyline, while its crypt reveals centuries-old frescoes. A visit to this magnificent cathedral offers a journey through time, blending history, art, and spirituality in a breathtaking setting.

Omaha Beach

Stretching over 6 miles along the Normandy coast, Omaha Beach was the most challenging landing site of D-Day on June 6, 1944. U.S. forces faced intense German resistance, with high cliffs and fortified bunkers turning the beach into a deadly battlefield. Despite heavy losses, their bravery secured a crucial foothold in Europe. Today, Omaha Beach is a place of reflection, with vast sands, remnants of war, and memorials honoring the fallen. The peaceful waves contrast with its violent past, making it a deeply moving site where history and sacrifice come alive.
