Tour of the Pays de Caux and Seine Valley (Seine-Maritime)

Starting in Lillebonne, this route begins with the discovery of its famous Roman theater. The path climbs towards Saint-Antoine-la-Forêt through the typical landscapes of the Pays de Caux region. Here, you can admire the clos-masures, traditional Norman farmsteads protected by tall beech hedges. The route crosses wooded valleys before reaching the Seine Valley. In Caudebec-en-Caux, "the pearl of the Seine," the Gothic church bears witness to a rich river history. The path then follows the meanders of the river towards Villequier, a place steeped in the memory of Victor Hugo. Elegant white stone houses overlook the water in a romantic setting. Between state forests and riverbanks, hikers can watch the barges glide along the current. The return journey to Notre-Dame-de-Gravenchon offers a striking contrast between industry and nature.
