Romilly-la-Puthenaye walks

Far from the towns and the hustle and bustle of human activity, enjoy a bucolic stroll through the woods and meadows of Normandy. Starting from Place de la Noë, 2 km from the village of Romilly-la-Puthenaye, the mainly forest paths offer a very pleasant walk leading to the old Moulin de Bougy mill in the Risle valley.

Shortened version of the marked route starting from Ajou, retaining the interesting views of this high valley of the Risle, its mills, including the very pretty Rouge Moulin, the charming village of Champignolles and forest passages that are enjoyable in summer. On the other hand, the 4 km to Ajou are of little interest, hence the suggestion to start from the church of Saint Aubin. Yellow markings

Improved version of the Blue marked route, starting from the Town Hall Square (superbly refurbished) to include a tour of the town, whose heritage is interesting and enhanced by recent developments.

Rivers, meadows, pollarded trees, sunken lanes through the bocage, forest... this peaceful walk offers a real taste of Normandy with beautiful discoveries: green landscapes, heritage sites and a park in a forest. Short version of the Three Rivers route marked in yellow. Unpaved paths: 75%

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).

Starting from a charming church, this is a short hike focused on water in the Avre Valley, on the border between Normandy and Île-de-France.

Starting from the charming church of Acon, on the border between Normandy and Île-de-France, the route first takes you through the Avre valley and follows the river for a good distance.

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.
