Pavilly walks

This walk will allow you to discover the Pavilly and Barentin valley.

After leaving the centre of a pleasant little village, cross a wood and a plain, passing through two hamlets. Alternate between small roads, pedestrian side streets, paths and trails.

Hike on either side of the Château de Saint-Pierre-de-Varengeville. On one side, wooded paths lead to the old Sainte-Anne chapel near La Seine and on the other, the plains lead to the Austreberthe valley. Along the way, the valley at the exit of the hamlet of Candos offers some very pretty views.

This is a pleasant walk with only one steep section. It mainly follows tarmac roads, so it is passable in rainy weather. It can be done by mountain bike.

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.

The route runs alongside the Seine twice, overlooks it at another point, crosses the village and loops back through the forest. All types of terrain: 2.5 km of quiet asphalt road in three sections, forest tracks and small paths.

Walk starting from the church in Bosc-Guérard-Saint-Adrien with varied landscapes, forest, green valley, the village of Montville and its leisure centre, largely following theGR®25,GR®25dandGR®210trails. Crossings of the Cailly, Clairette and Sondres rivers. Along the route, you will see some beautiful buildings typical of the region, and the remarkable church of Montville with its Republican pediment.

Discover Montigny, its village, rural and forest heritage, as you wander through the streets and marked forest paths of the Roumare National Forest. During your walk, you will have the opportunity to admire an 18th-century castle and a traditional farmhouse called the "Maison Rouge". A few steps further on, you can enjoy a refreshing dip in the Sangliers pond. Then, on the Allée Verte, discover one of the curiosities of this trail: a megalithic stone believed to have been used for druidic rituals.

A lovely walk in the forest where you can discover ponds, monuments and magnificent trees. See practical information.

A short walk to discover the northern part of the Forêt Verte, which is less frequented. Over just a few kilometres, you will discover a wide variety of forest landscapes.

Hike from the forecourt of Saint-Martin-de-Boscherville Abbey to Montigny and Hénouville along forest paths and trails. Then, descend through the marshes to walk along the Seine and return to Saint-Martin via trails, paths and small roads.

This hike is a kind of treasure hunt, during which you will have to find eight pebbles. Each pebble has a word written on it. Once you have found all the words, you will have to put them together to form a sentence that answers this question:What do you reap when you move forward with words?

This introductory loop hike takes in the western slopes of Rouen (Fond du Val - Le Cotillet) as far as the Portes de la Forêt Verte small park. The route is largely an out-and-back, so you can shorten the walk if you need to, depending on your physical abilities.

Hike in the Jumièges region, known for its many fruit tree plantations. In spring, these blossoming trees line the route, which also veers into the forest to visit a tiny chapel nestled among the trees. The route continues through the countryside, past thatched cottages and local stone houses, passing Jumièges Abbey and a tithe barn. You can see the Seine from both banks, but also when crossing it by ferry.

Starting from Quevillon, this route is located in the Roumare Forest, where you can admire pheasants, wild boars, roe deer and deer in the wild, crossing a path or forest road, and enjoy the sound of pheasants calling as you walk.

Rouen and its half-timbered streets. Typical Normandy and boats on the Seine. With a rich and prestigious past, largely dating back to the medieval era, not to mention the martyrdom and death of Joan of Arc.

Located on the left bank of the Seine, Heurteauville offers an exceptional natural setting, perfect for a peaceful and immersive hike. The village nestles at the foot of the Brotonne Forest, one of the large natural massifs of the Boucles de la Seine Regional Nature Park.

With a nod to Victor Hugo, who referred to the city as the city of a hundred bell towers, the theme of this urban walk is churches and chapels without bell towers. These are the remains of churches that have suffered the ravages of history and urbanisation, as well as churches and chapels that have been deconsecrated and converted to other uses or are awaiting decisions on their fate. A few buildings still used for worship are exceptions, but they are well worth a visit. An opportunity to (re)discover this beautiful city .

A walk through Rouen, a quintessential Norman city with its many churches and remarkable monuments, its clock and its historic sites, as well as its panoramic views of the Seine and the city from the hillsides.

An easy and pleasant walk, best done during cherry season or when the many fruit trees along the route are in bloom. Lovely views of the Abbey and the River Seine.
