Top 5 walks with your dog
Toutoutou, everything you need to know about doggies!The foreshore, a huge playground

At high tide and especially at low tide on the foreshore, you and your pooch can enjoy the beauty of the landscape and these stretches of sandwhere your pets can let off steam. No matter which beaches you visit, you must keep your dog on a lead. Some beaches (not dykes) are off-limits to our four-legged friends during the summer: Agon-Coutainville, Anneville-sur-Mer, Annoville and Hauteville-sur-Mer.
La Mare de l'Essay

An inviting picnic table in the heart of a sunny forest.
On the seafront at Agon-Coutainville, the Mare de l’Essay is the perfect place for your dog to mingle with ducks and other fowl in a shady, refreshing area. There are play areas for children, a boules pitch, mini-golf, pedalos and plenty of picnic tables in the shade of the pine trees.
Gouville-sur-Mer and Regnéville-sur-Mer

Or opt for the dunes at Gouville-sur-Mer, with their herbs, sand and cabins. You’ll be able to immortalise this moment in photos in the most beautiful of settings. If you prefer to combine business with pleasure, why not consider Regnéville-sur-Mer, with its magnificent narrow streets, the ruins of its castle, its lime kilns and a haven like no other.
Greenways

On the land!
Take advantage of the long stretches of peace and quiet in a bucolic setting that are the greenways. Whether you choose the route from Coutances towards Pont de la Roque or the one from Cambernon towards Nord Cotentin, you and your pooch will have plenty of time for a leisurely stroll. If the first, relatively short route allows you to follow the course of the Soulles and discover some of our local mills, the second, much longer route will give you the chance to wander through the heart of the Normandy bocage.
Hiking routes

For something completely different – more sporting or more contemplative, depending on your preference – try one of our many hiking trails with your dog, who will then have plenty of time to run around freely. But beware of the fauna, flora and other trail users.
