Tips from the Community
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.

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

An old Norman half-timbered house by the harbor. The front view is inaccessible or difficult to access due to construction workers on the street. However, the inner courtyard is also well preserved and bears witness to the carpentry skills of our ancestors.

Itinerary with almost no roads (mainly dirt and coastal paths through fields and small sections of departmental and municipal roads) in very pretty natural environments. Especially the beach and the surroundings of Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer! However, some sad old fly-tipping and rarer more recent ones on the coastal paths and other points can be annoying. Also pay attention to the weather on the day of the outing and the previous days because some sections can become very muddy + some passages in the vegetation can transform, with growth, into slightly narrower and difficult to use spaces (mainly coastal paths). The erosion of the cliff seems to be accelerating in some parts and could make access to certain areas of the coastal paths more complex or even cut off in the (fairly) near future. Allow a good seven hours (minimum) in total with a few short breaks.

A small detour from the cycle path that is worth it. The cafe is opposite the town hall. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, tasty little dishes with a twist.

From this point of view, you can admire the town of Veules-les-Roses and its river, the Veules, famous for being the shortest in France. You can even see it flow into the sea nearby.

It's nice to cycle through the village and look at the different houses.
