Description of the walk

Start at the car park in front of Boudeville church.

(S/E) With your back to the church, take Rue de l'Église, which climbs slightly in front of you.

(1) Take the first right at the farm buildings.

(2) Turn right under the power lines. 50 metres before the end of the road, take a moment to admire the pretty porch that adorns the farm entrance on your left.

(3) Turn right and you will immediately reach a T-junction with another road. Turn left.

(4) A little further on, when you reach the three-way junction, turn right towards Saint-Laurent. At the next crossroads, turn left. When you reach the D149, turn right.

(5) Drive through Saint-Laurent. At the traffic lights, continue straight ahead.

(6) At the crossroads, turn right onto the D50 towards Caltot and continue. Pass the first cul-de-sac on your right.

(7) 100 metres further on, turn right onto Rue du Glu. This quickly becomes a forest path. Follow this path and, at the end, take the road on the left.

(8) After crossing the small bridge, take the first path on the right and then immediately turn left to enter the woods.

(9) 300 metres after leaving the woods, at the crossroads, take the path on the right. Turn right again onto the road towards Mesnil Rury.

(10) At the end of the road, turn right and then immediately left towards Torp-Mesnil on the D103. Follow the road as it turns right. At the next bend, leave the road continuing to the left and take the small road straight ahead, passing alongside the farm. At the crossroads, take the path across the plain opposite. Cross the D142 and continue straight ahead.
At the first crossroads, turn right to return to the church and car park (S/E).

Worth a visit

Places of interest:
A craft brewery producing Cauchoise beer is located in the hamlet of Bosc-aux-Moines in Boudeville.
This is something of a rarity in this cider-producing region. Visits are possible.

It is worth paying a visit to the town hall of the neighbouring commune of Prétot-Viquemare, where a plaque pays tribute to Bourvil, who was born in this village, before continuing a few kilometres further on to the village of Bourville, which inspired his stage name.

A pleasant hike with no difficulty. In fact, it is the yellow-marked route 28, "Hikes in the Pays de Caux, Doudeville and its surroundings." The only difference is that route 28 starts in St Laurent en Caux - Petit Torp - Boudeville - Le Mesnil and returns to St Laurent.

The roads are paved but there is very little traffic.

A pleasant little outing with excellent signage along the route. However, I noticed one slightly controversial point.
In 10, at the end of the sentence: at the next bend, leave the road and continue left on the small road that runs alongside the farm.
The small road that runs alongside the farm and which the signposting invites you to take is on our right and not on the left. But it is worth turning left to go to Saint Henri Church to admire the architecture of the building and then take the road just opposite the church to reach the end of the road that runs alongside the farm and the start of the plain path.
Otherwise, congratulations to the author of this hike for the directions provided and for improving the route markings by adding paint and arrows where needed.

1- Initially, I would have written: "with your back to the church, go up the street".
2- At point No. 2, you have to turn under the power lines, not after them.
Apart from these two details, the description is spot on. The route is pleasant and easy.
Two-thirds of the route is on small roads or paved paths with very little traffic.
Thank you to the author of this walk.

Much of the hike is on paved farm roads and through fields, but the part in the forest was lovely.
