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.

The Durdent offers a picturesque setting for cycle tourists. This serene waterway winds through green valleys dotted with charming Norman villages, including the particularly peaceful Vittefleur.

Louis XII spent his holidays here; it is amazing that this magnificent building survived the revolution.

Magnificent oak in the Seine-Maritime department whose exact age is not known, but which is estimated at 1200 years old, which would make it the oldest oak in France. This tree is worth the detour and is a very pleasant place to rest for a few moments.
