Description of the walk

Park near the church in La Ferrière-sur-Risle,

(S/E) With your back to the church (13th century) and the market halls (14th century), head towards the crossroads (or the Les Tanneries Cultural Centre). At the crossroads, turn right towards Conches and continue for 30 metres.

Red markings

(1) Go up a small wooded cul-de-sac on the left (in the middle of the bend).

(2) At the intersection with the tarmac road, go up to the left to the end (the Bon'Eure vegetable garden on your right), then take the small grassy path opposite. Enter the undergrowth and continue straight ahead (ignore the paths and roads on your right and left). Cross the tarmac road and leave the Saint-Blaise calvary on your left. Continue straight ahead until you reach the edge of the forest.

(3) At the edge of the forest, you will see Maxime's strawberry greenhouses on your left. Continue straight ahead towards the church of Quincarnon (16th and 17th centuries). Before the church, on your right, you will see a bed and breakfast.

(4) At the church, take the small road on the right (Rue du Clos Verron). At the crossroads with Route du Bois des Roses, take the dirt track straight ahead until you reach the edge of the woods.

End of signposting

(5) At the electricity pole, turn right, without entering the undergrowth.
At the intersection (chicken coops on the right), continue straight ahead, then find a grassy path halfway between the chicken coops and the houses.

(6) Turn right onto this small grassy path.
At the next intersection, turn left towards the small house and the avenue of fir trees. Head right towards the tarmac road.

(7) At the road (D37), turn left. Continue straight ahead and note, just before the Sébécourt town hall, a picnic area next to the pond.

(8) At the town hall, turn left towards the church. Continue straight ahead, then turn right onto Rue de la Grande Ferme, towards the rural lodge. Pass in front of the lodge (a restored 16th-century barn), continue straight ahead along the small grassy path, then enter the edge of the forest and walk for 100 metres.

(9) At the tarmac road, turn right towards the "give way" sign on the D140. Turn left/right onto the old railway line of the greenway that leads to Le Fidelaire. Continue straight ahead, pass the first tarmac road, continue straight ahead at the second road, slightly to the left, then to the right, to rejoin the greenway.

(10) Cross the D23, continue for 50 m, then turn right onto a very small grassy path. (If you continue slightly to the left: campsite). Cross the tarmac road (Rue Saint Eloi, boules court opposite) and turn right into the square to enter Le Fidelaire.

(11) In the town centre, turn left towards the town hall and the school. Go down Rue de la Mairie and pass the old train station. At the intersection, continue straight on Rue Maison Flèche, then turn left onto Rue du Stade, towards "Le Chatelier" and "Le Maupas".

(12) Take the first small path across the fields on the right until you reach the tarmac road. At the intersection, continue straight ahead on this path (across the fields) until you reach Rue des Asniers.

(13) Turn left towards the houses and immediately turn right onto a small dirt track lined with trees. Continue for about 700 metres. Pass the first track on your left and continue straight ahead towards a small bridge.

(14) Before the small bridge, turn right towards the houses. Go around the pasture bordered by a tree-lined hedge until you reach the tarmac road and the houses.
(15) At the junction with the D23 main road, turn left (take care) and continue for about 1 km, then turn right towards the community waste collection point and you will arrive at the D140 (beware of heavy traffic).

(16) Turn left and follow the D140 for about 100 m, then turn right towards "la Côte de la Ferrière".

(2) After 100 m, turn left to descend to La Ferrière-sur-Risle.

(1) Cross the D140 and take Rue du Pont Ménage opposite to arrive at the starting point (S/E).

Hike with very little elevation gain, so fairly easy. The "difficulty" lies in the length (20km). You walk between fields and forests, so it can be done all year round. Perhaps best to avoid hunting days...
No one on the trails, just nature, birds and rabbits.
