I only rode the part between Saint Vaast Dieppevalle to Fecamps, as before this there is a 20km ride on shared roads, and I don't like these so much on my longboard. The part I rode is superb, be it for the landscape, the vilages, the tarmac and the rest areas with tables, benches, apple trees. I loved it and will be back.

Rode it on a longboard from Saint Vaast Dieppevalle to Fecamp. Nice tarmac, quiet, not a lot of people, a lot of rest areas with table, benches, and apple trees. Superb landscapes. I loved it and will come back. What is also interesting for training is that it is never flat, with uphills that can go for 4 or 5 km, but those are around 2%, so doable. Good for inline rollers, quads, longboards.

Things get a bit more touristy here – but still pleasant. The water is crystal clear.

The marina of Fécamp is a quiet place where sailboats and motorboats moor side by side. The atmosphere is relaxed and as you walk along the water you can see the many white masts reflected in the water. The fish market is particularly worth seeing, offering freshly caught fish and a wide range of seafood. Here you can buy oysters, shrimps and even lobsters. A visit is particularly worthwhile for lovers of fresh seafood. The harbor itself is functional, but with a little luck you might see a historic sailing ship anchored, which adds to the maritime atmosphere.
