A pleasant walk through a lovely wooded area; it is a Christmas tree plantation.

Description of the walk

Park in the Tourneville Town Hall car park.

(S/E) Turn right onto Rue des Forières; at the Stop sign, continue straight ahead and, at the end of the road, turn left onto Route de la Forêt, which follows the red and white-markedGR®222. You will soon reach the junction with a path near the La Château housing estate.

(1) Turn right onto this path, still following theGR®, and enter the forest. Continue until you reach another junction at a place called Les Jardins.

(2) Leave theGR® here and turn left onto the path, beginning a gentle climb; you’ll reach a fork and see a small sign on the ground pointing to Autrebosc.

(3) Continue left, climbing. Follow the path and, at the top of the hill, reach a crossroads with a tree bearing a sign indicating: Sacquenville - Evreux - Autrebosc. Keep right and walk almost level to reach the junction with the road to Autrebosc.

(4) Cross it and enter the woods, leaving them shortly afterwards to arrive at the village of Autrebosc.

(5) Take the road to the right, then at the fork turn left, pass the fir plantations and at the crossroads, turn left towards the hamlet of Verbos. Continue along the road and pass the old farm. Stay on the dirt track, cross a wooded area then a plain. Then head down to the crossroads.

(6) Turn left towards the oak grove, follow it, and join the D52 road. Follow it to the left for a few metres, taking great care with the traffic. You will come to another junction.

(7) Turn right onto the path running parallel to the road. Join theGR®222. Cross it to continue straight ahead and, after the Hamel district, you will reach the Tourneville Town Hall car park (S/E).

At point 2, we couldn’t find the sign
At point 5, a road junction is indicated: it is actually a path.
Otherwise, no complaints; you can rely on the GPS coordinates and the distance (which is what we did)

A pleasant walk, but the path has become impassable because it’s too muddy,
we’ll be happy to do it again, to get to the end,
Thank you for this description

A nice little hike with varied scenery.
Personally, I only used the map on the app with my GPS location (as I do when I’m in the mountains), so I didn’t use the description. I had no trouble following the route.
Thank you, Nadine27400, for adding this hike and for the time you spent on it! Please don’t let the comments discourage you from posting more, even if it’s just the GPS track without a description ;-)

Hello,
Sorry, but there are times when the route isn’t easy to describe.
I have lots of other walks to share, but I’m hesitant to post them, even though they’re lovely walks.

The note for point 3 does not match the map. It should be clearer to avoid heading in the wrong direction: the note instructs you to keep to the right, whereas the map shows a left-hand turn.

A very pleasant route with varied scenery; the only "difficulty" is a hill at point 2.
We went the wrong way once before completing the whole route correctly:
- at point 2, the sign wasn’t on the ground but on a tree set back a little; if you arrive at the road, you’ll need to turn round
- at point 5, it is not a road junction, but at point 6 you take the first path on the left after the ‘fields’ along a woodland (oaks)
