Be careful, part of the route is no longer accessible because of a private road (fence), which requires you to turn around. Very pretty route but very quickly muddy in wet weather.

The Porte des Cordeliers is a medieval gate and one of the remains of the fortified enclosure which surrounded the town of Falaise, birthplace of William the Conqueror. The gate was built in the 13th century and was guarded by Franciscan monks, also known as Cordeliers. You can admire the architecture of the gate and its neighboring tower, as well as the view of the countryside and the Château de Falaise.

The house was built around 1750. At that time, a beautiful English park with gardens was created. It no longer exists today, but the green space that one crosses to access the house is still a peaceful part of nature to enjoy.
