A must-see circuit in the Pays d'Auge in Lower Normandy, the Cider Route is located in the Canton of Cambremer
His origin :
As early as 1973, the idea began with a proposal from a municipal councilor from Houlgate, who advocated the creation of a tourist route to allow summer visitors to discover the hinterland and appreciate the high quality of local products from Augeron.
In 1974, the implementation of this project is carried out thanks to the tourist office of the Canton which decides to call this circuit "Cider Route".
The union of farm cider producers of the Cru de Cambremer carried out the revaluation of farm cider with an "open cellars" operation in 1974 as well as the layout of the road and the installation of the signs "route du Cider" and "cru de Cambremer”, located at the entrance to the farms allowing visits and tastings.
With the active support of the General Councillor, the “Cider Route” circuit was inaugurated on May 25, 1975 by the Deputy Prefect of Lisieux.
