Pîtres walks

A pleasant short hike of about ten kilometres along the banks of the Andelle and the Seine. Crossing the Léry Poses outdoor recreation centre and on the banks of Biotropica.

Circuit around the water: lakes, ponds and river. This walk begins by crossing the Seine via a footbridge that passes over the locks and the Poses dam. It then goes around the Lac des Deux Amants and the Lac du Mesnil, where numerous birds, including waterfowl, add to the charm of these lakeside landscapes. Finally, the return to the banks of the Seine takes you past splendid houses built from local stone and faces the chalk cliffs.

The 2 Lovers' hike.

This walk follows the Eure on both banks from Pont-de-l'Arche, then crosses the village of Léry and continues into the Bord forest.

Country lanes and forest paths take you to the semi-troglodytic Saint-Adrien chapel, passing through the village of Belbeuf where you can admire the castle and its polygonal dovecote.

A short hike in the Andelle Valley to discover its rich heritage. Two castles, an abbey and the remains of a spinning mill with striking architecture punctuate this route.

Then, climb up the path at the edge of the Bois des Chartreux towards Le Faulx, in the commune of Franqueville-Saint-Pierre.

Circular loop in the Bord-Louviers forest via the old Route d'Elbeuf. This is a season when the forest seems both alive and peaceful, with animals bustling about before winter, mushrooms sprouting from the ground and trees losing their leaves.

Autumn hike in a forest environment, mainly consisting of large avenues called forest roads. The avenues and paths are covered with a carpet of russet, ochre and golden leaves. The air is cooler, ideal for walking, filled with the smells of damp earth, mushrooms and wood.
