A pleasant route combining tarmac, paths and trails, starting from a small village in the Eure department, in the Oison valley.

L'Oison was formerly known as Le Bec, Le Becquet (from the Norse bekkr meaning stream), but also Le Dué or Douet (from the Celtic four meaning running water). Discover beautiful Norman houses as well as around twenty species of wild orchids growing in the valley, which is classified as a natural area of faunistic and floristic interest.

It is said that it gave strength to children who were slow to walk, who were then immersed in the very cold water of the spring.

Nestled in the heart of Roumois, in the Eure department, this hike connects the charming villages of Saint-Pierre-des-Fleurs, Le Bec-Thomas, Saint-Ouen-de-Pontcheuil and Saint-Amand-des-Hautes-Terres.

It is housed in the former Sainte-Clotilde chapel, which was deconsecrated at the beginning of the 20th century and converted by a naval architect accustomed to small spaces. A short photo break is a must before continuing on to the Saint-Louis Collegiate Church, a beautiful building whose architecture combines simplicity and elegance.

Cet arbre remarquable est assurément l'un des plus beaux (si ce n'est le plus beau) de toute la région.
