Run the legendary D-Day coastline. Sand, cliffs, and rolling trails challenge your endurance and reward you with endless ocean views.

This stage is pure coastline: dunes beneath your feet, cliffs towering above, and the wind pushing you forward. The route flows across beaches, fishing towns, and rolling hills that drop straight into the sea. Soft sand, rocky paths, towering cliffs, and fast gravel sections keep you alert.

On the map the route looks like a straight line, but don’t be fooled. The constant ups and downs make this stage heavy on the legs — distance alone is not the only challenge here.

Every mile brings both effort and awe. But nothing compares to Omaha Beach. Here, every participant feels the weight of history. For many, it is a moment of silence, a personal memorial. Standing before the impressive monument, you know that just above lies the American cemetery with its 10,000 white crosses. It makes you quiet, humble, and deeply respectful.

The stage ends with tired legs, a clear mind, and the ocean forever etched into your memory.
