オングマール-グヌーヴィルのおすすめツーリングルート

The 3 bridges between Le Havre and Rouen (Normandy, Tancarville and Brotonne (the latter quite dangerous for bicycles) are very high because they have to allow passage of large tonnage boats intended to supply Paris, the Seine being an important component. These boats are then unloaded in Rouen onto smaller tonnage boats which go to Paris. This system of ferries, surprisingly free, is therefore there to compensate for this lack of possible crossings. Do not hesitate to use them, it is really a very nice plus.

A magical place, ideal as a starting point for hikes and, of course, for visiting the ruins.

There are plenty of free ferries for both bikes and cars. They run quickly and the boatmen are friendly. I think there are eight ferries in total. ☺

To avoid the extremely high bridges over the Seine, we chose the ferry. We enjoyed the crossing – completely uncomplicated and pleasant. I took photos of the departure times.

We were able to get a croissant and a sandwich here today. We couldn't find a good coffee machine (portafilter machine) and therefore no coffee. So we continued shopping, hoping to find a tobacco bar.

Between Rouen and Le Havre, the Seine forms increasingly pronounced loops before flowing into the English Channel. It is this environment that gave rise to the Boucles de la Seine Normande nature park. From this high vantage point, you can admire the landscapes.

This ferry crossing is part of many cycle routes in the Normandy region and offers a charming and convenient way to cross the Seine, connecting the towns of Duclair and Berville-sur-Seine. As you cycle to the ferry landing stage, you will discover picturesque views of the gently flowing Seine, framed by green banks.
