Right at the heart of Normandy, the Pays d'Auge is a very hilly area to be found between Caen and Rouen. From its apple trees to its half-timbered houses, this area located in the heart of the Calvados is a guarantee for calmness and authenticity.
There is a variety of things to do and see in the Pays d'Auge including visits to cheese-makers and local distilleries, the Cider Route, walks around Beuvron-en-Auge, classified as one of the most beautiful villages in France, but not only!
The Pays d'Auge is also rich in castles and manors. Among those which can be visited are the Château de Crèvecoeur, the Château de Vendeuvre, the Château de Saint-Germain-de-Livet and the gardens of Château de Canon. The Flower Coast of Normandy is also a must-do with its racecourses, harbors, international film festival, casinos, and sumptuous hotels.
Of course, tasting the region's cuisine is a must for any trip to Normandy: Cider, Calvados, cheeses (Camembert, Pont-l’Évêque, and Livarot) will definitely be a hit with food lovers.
