In the footsteps of the Canadians - 17 km
Walk proposed by the Office Courseullais des Sports association.
To mark the 80th anniversary of the armistice that brought peace to Europe, Les Randonnées pour la Paix pays tribute not only to those who fought for our freedom, but also to all those who, in 2025, are still suffering from conflicts around the world.
As part of Normandy Battlefields for Peace, we are organizing hikes with all proceeds going to Handicap International. By taking part, you contribute directly to the financing of essential actions: mine clearance, disarmament and support for conflict victims.
The hikers will join the group from Courseulles sur mer. Departure at 10:30 am from Bény Reviers Canadian Cemetery, a symbolic place of remembrance. Participants will pass through historic villages such as Fontaine-Henry, Thaon, Cairon-le-Vieux and Saint-Contest, before arriving at the Caen Memorial Valley between 4.30 and 5 pm.
We look forward to seeing you there to share this moment of remembrance and solidarity!
For information:
- Meet 30 minutes before departure.
- Please note: Plan your return journey (car pooling or bus? please note schedules on public holidays).
