Theillement walks

There are two possible routes: a short one of 4 km or a long one of 8 km (72% dirt tracks). This varied and easy route offers an interesting heritage with the Manoir du Val and its elegant brick dovecote, the small Manoir du Thuit and the Villa des Bruyères, not to mention the church and a typical thatched cottage at the start. Long stretches through the woods alternate with more open landscapes on the agricultural plateau. The occasional disturbance from the nearby motorway is quickly forgotten.

Cette agréable randonnée vous permettra de découvrir ce petit coin de Normandie un peu méconnu car loin des lieux touristiques. On croise en chemin le joli Château de la Mésangère, un bel étang perdu en forêt mais surtout le Chêne à la Vierge de la Mésangère. Cet arbre remarquable est assurément l'un des plus beaux (si ce n'est le plus beau) de toute la région.

Away from the marked trails lies a small valley with no waterways but full of charm. It is so hidden that the nightjar, a rare bird in Normandy, has been spotted there during its migration. Starting from the pretty village of Thierville, itself set apart from the Risle valley, this route takes you through varied forest environments and offers beautiful encounters such as the remarkable "Four Brothers" tree.

An easy hike around Bec-Hellouin, through forest and old monuments: old houses, an abbey and a monastery.

Located on the outskirts of Rouen, the La Londe-Rouvray forest is a true natural gem, with majestic beech forests, winding paths and bright clearings. Ranked among the largest state-owned forests in Normandy, it invites you to escape and discover varied landscapes, shaped by the seasons and history. Following the GPX track can be useful in the forest.

A.F.S.S.O Pas à Pas recommends this route in the La Londe National Forest, which allows you to discover several caves on a pleasant walk. A word of advice: do not venture into the caves, wear good shoes and bring walking sticks.

This hiking route (unmarked) allows you to discover the history and architecture of four sites from the medieval period: Montfort Castle, the Priory and a seigneurial residence in Glos-sur-Risle.

The hike ends with a long walk through the Montfort State Forest, which has been awarded the "Remarkable Tree" label for 11 of its trees.

Unmarked route, rich and varied, almost exclusively on paths. The ruins of the medieval castle and the banks of the Risle at Château la Motte provide a beautiful end to this hike, which offers a wide variety of landscapes, between the national forest and the Claireau valley, as well as elements of natural heritage (remarkable trees) and historical heritage (Château la Motte, 18th-century wash house, etc.).

This is a beautiful walk along little-used forest paths that are somewhat wild but very pleasant! You really feel like you're in the middle of nature with a wide variety of vegetation and tree species, magnificent ferns, etc. You'll be breathing hard as you pedal, because this route is quite challenging with some steep climbs and technical sections, but it's still accessible without too many problems...

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

This walk offers you the chance to explore this remarkable forest heritage, breathe in the fresh air of the undergrowth and enjoy the tranquillity of a preserved environment. Whether you are a nature lover, a regular walker or simply curious, the Bois de la Hérangère will surprise you with its diversity and peaceful atmosphere.

The pretty village of Mauny has a rich heritage with its imposing castle and numerous old houses. The forest covers half of the route and contrasts with the open agricultural plain. The Grotte du Maquis, a sandstone cross and beautiful trees also line this pleasant route. A shorter version of the yellow marked route starting from Barneville-sur-Seine, retaining its main points of interest but removing the two sections on the fairly busy road.

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. Between green valleys, hedgerow paths and the peaceful banks of the Oison, the route offers an authentic immersion in the Normandy countryside. Along the trails, alternating between quiet country roads and wilder passages, you will discover a discreet rural heritage and open landscapes typical of Roumois.

This route is suitable for experienced hikers as there are significant elevation changes and it can sometimes be difficult to find your way through the maze of forest paths in the Londe Forest. The GPX track and app will be useful.

Starting from La Saussaye, the path quickly opens up onto alternating undergrowth and small country lanes. The route allows you to enjoy a peaceful, green rural environment. After a pleasant warm-up, you reach Saint-Germain-de-Pasquier, a charming Norman village known for having the smallest town hall in France: with a surface area of around 8 m² (2.7 metres by 3), it is indeed one of the smallest town halls in France, listed in the Guinness Book of Records. 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.

Typically Norman, La Haye-de-Routot is a charming village attached to its traditions and craftsmanship. Starting from the church, an easy route suitable for all ages reveals a varied landscape with a beautiful collection of pollarded trees intertwined with hedges and tall beech trees in the national forest, pretty bocage valleys and views of the agricultural plain. This route is largely unmarked and shortens the yellow-marked route.

We begin with a stretch through the forest, crossing the golf course, then we go around the lake and take the marsh path to join the Route du Conihout and then the towpath.

A short route with varied landscapes: the charming village of Mesnil-sous-Jumièges on the banks of the Seine, then a short detour into the forest, passing near the Manoir d'Agnès Sorel, followed by a walk along the lake opposite the leisure centre, and ending through marshes and orchards along the towpath.

Walking tour on little-used roads, paths and trails that cross the village and the marshes, run alongside the Seine, and criss-cross the plain and the forest.

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.

This hike in the Brotonne National Forest offered me a wonderful immersion in nature, between shady undergrowth and wide forest paths. The route passes through two iconic sites: the Rond de Nagu and the Rond du Loup, former forest crossroads steeped in history. The path winds its way between oak and beech trees, in a calm and soothing atmosphere. At Rond de Nagu, it's worth taking a break to enjoy the open setting and the silence of the forest, punctuated only by birdsong. The walk then continues towards Rond du Loup, where several paths converge, offering beautiful views of the surrounding mountains.

During this hike in the Brotonne forest, I walked along peaceful trails in the heart of unspoilt nature. Lined with majestic oak and beech trees, the paths offered a cool and soothing atmosphere. The calm was disturbed only by the singing of birds and the rustling of leaves under my feet. This accessible and rejuvenating walk was a pleasant moment of relaxation and discovery of Normandy's natural heritage.

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.

Vieux-Port is the smallest commune in the Eure department. It has preserved the characteristic houses of eastern Normandy, half-timbered farmhouses with cob walls and thatched roofs. It is a popular stopover for boaters sailing on the Seine. The hike crosses the village, but also beautiful forests and typical Norman hamlets, and offers beautiful views of the Seine.
