The Val d'Orne - Putanges-le-Lac is not a flat country and its charm is revealed precisely by its deep valleys and the rocky escarpments that surround it.
The low altitude circuits around our villages will appeal to families. The more athletic will prefer our many coasts and small steep roads. In any case, our territory left a memorable memory ... on your calves!
