Arques-la-Bataille walks

Walking in town and on the beach. A beautiful and simple way to discover the port of Dieppe (one of the five largest cities in Normandy) and its opening onto the English Channel in less than two hours of walking. You can explore the town in more depth by staying there for the whole day.

Hike starting from Offranville, passing through the Bois de la Londe. At Le Hamelet (in the commune of Saint-Aubin-sur-Scie), there is a short, physically demanding climb up the Chemin des Jonquilles to reach the Canadian military cemetery in Dieppe in the hamlet of Les Vertus. Then descend towards Petit-Appeville, across fields via Les Bruyères, with lovely views of the Scie valley. Follow the greenway at Hautot-sur-Mer to Pourville-sur-Mer and its beach. The return journey is via the Bois d'Hautot and the greenway to Offranville. In Offranville, if you still have some energy left, visit the William Farcy floral park.

Hike to visit Varengeville-sur-Mer. You will see some magnificent properties along the way. A remarkable site for its beauty, it is known for its marine cemetery where Georges Braque, designer of a stained-glass window in the church, Georges de Porto-Riche, Albert Roussel and Jean Francis Auburtin are buried, among others. Claude Monet painted some beautiful pictures here. The two small woods, Bernouville and Les Communes, are worth a detour. Alternative route available in practical information.

This lovely little walk will allow you to discover the banks of the Saâne before it flows into the sea. Discover Varengeville-sur-Mer and its charming houses. Pass close to the Manoir d'Ango. Stroll through the woods of Les Moutiers de Vasterival and Sainte-Marguerite. Don't miss the church of Varengeville with its stained glass windows by Braque and its marine cemetery.

This walk will take you through the charming village and past the ponds of Saint-Hellier, nestled on the banks of the Varenne River. It will lead you into the Forêt Domaniale d'Eawy, which overlooks the village.

This hike, which is not particularly difficult, allows you to discover the cliffs of Ault and Onival beach to the north from the panoramic view of the Bois de Cise. Moderator's warning: Report of restricted access (January 2021) following a landslide on the cliff.

Walk in the heart of Le Hâble d'Ault, where it is advisable to bring a pair of binoculars to observe the birds.

Rocquefort, a rural village in the heart of the Pays de Caux, with its castle, the sources of the Durdent in Héricourt-en-Caux, and the Vert Buisson, all accessible via country lanes and woodland paths.

A route for children, on country roads and through fields. I did this route with my three grandchildren, aged 3 and 8, for fun and to help them learn how to use a map.

A circuit through plains and undergrowth in the heart of Caux passing through the charming hamlet of Veraval.

This is a very varied walk, with a variety of landscapes including forest, marshland and plains. The terrain includes trails, towpaths, paths, small roads and places of interest such as an abbey, a collegiate church, a church, hamlets, a village and a market town.

From Port du Hourdel, there is a coastal route that returns along the ponds and passes by the Maison des Oiseaux. Important note from one of our friends: please note that parking at Le Hourdel is subject to a charge, even in low season. However, the car park located between (3) and (4) was free when we went on our walk. It was therefore possible to start the walk from this new starting point.
