Caux Seine Agglo 2021 Rando Champ De Lin Nature CsntWith over 1,000 kilometers of well-maintained and signposted hiking trails, the Caux Seine region is a hiker’s paradise, whatever your choice: on foot, horseback, bike or mountain bike.
With twenty hiking trails, eight for mountain biking, six for cycling and seven for horse riding, it’s not easy to choose. That’s why we’ve come up with four must-do tours, one in each category.
La Mailleraye Vallee De Seine D.genestalFrom the Brotonne forest to Jumièges Abbey, this hike is full of surprises. It’s undoubtedly the most beautiful hike you’ll ever do. At 19.2 kilometers, it’s also the longest. Allow just under five hours to complete the trail, which is mostly shaded by the Brotonne forest.
Some remarkable trees are worth a detour, such as the Welded Beech and the Vat Oak. You won’t want to miss the breathtaking view of the Seine from the panoramic viewpoint at La Mailleraye-sur-Seine, with the river and Jumièges Abbey in the distance.
And if you’re not too tired, you can take the ferry across the Seine to the foot of the most beautiful ruin in France.
“En bord de Seine” is the name of the equestrian trail we’re proposing. A pretty 38 km loop starting from La Mailleraye-sur-Seine, between river and forest. From the top of your mount, you’ll ride alongside the Seine along the towpaths and find peace and quiet as you pass through the wooded parts of the Forêt de Brotonne.
This beautiful ride also offers you the chance to discover what makes the “marais” so special: land that is partly flooded every winter within the loop of the Seine at the foot of the Brotonne bridge. Meadows where horses, sheep and cows frolic – Normandy cows, of course – fields of corn and barley, ponds, poplar groves and pollarded willows.
Equestrian weekend. La Mailleraye sur seine.
Bord De Seine September 2014 Rive Gauche Rando Seine Vtt Nature Espace Vert Voie Cyclable Entre Amis 76 William FautreA new 22-kilometer tour begins in Notre-Dame-de-Gravenchon, near the archeological site of Fontaine Saint-Denis. Here you’ll discover the former château of the Counts of Évreux, with its restored wall, medieval tower and walkway. From up here, you overlook the Télhuet valley and its ponds below. It’s from here that you’ll start your tour, which will then take you to magnificent panoramas of the Seine and the Cauchoise countryside.
With no major difficulties, this VVT tour will also allow you to discover the pretty village of Touffreville-la-Cable.
13 kilometers of gentle cycling. You’ll discover an exceptional landscape of the Seine valley and its ancient marshes, crossing fields and skirting the river, but also monuments not to be missed.
In particular, the Château d’Ételan. One of France’s first Renaissance châteaux, if not the first, in the flamboyant Gothic style built at the very end of the 15th century. Just a stone’s throw from the château, the village of Saint-Maurice d’Ételan overlooks the marshland, where you can pedal in peace and quiet. A village that seems timeless, with an old-fashioned charm that’s sure to win you over. Just like the breathtaking view over the marsh and the Seine during a short break next to the town hall.
