오토빌 주변 최고의 교통량 없는 자전거 라이딩 코스

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.

Please note that this route uses private roads and is therefore prohibited!!

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.

The bridge itself is magnificent and it is also the only one in the region with a large cycle path and light traffic.

Pay attention to the new bridge sector junctions

I've safely crossed the bike-tractor lane in the center of the road several times in both directions. I'm prone to vertigo, however, so I don't hesitate to cross it. (5 minutes for 2 km) However, in even moderately windy weather, I absolutely avoid it. The view is magnificent from every angle, both from the top and the side. On the other hand, my wife crosses it without any problem and appreciates the width of the very wide bike path (2.50 m), which is much safer than the Tancarville Bridge or the Normandy Bridge. (The path is almost nonexistent and strongly discouraged on this bridge: take the bus to cross it!)

Superb gravel and mountain bike trail through the pine forest

The bridge overlooking the river is impressive in its dimensions. Please note that it is still difficult to feel safe there given the speed of the vehicles and the height. It is possible to ride in the right lane reserved (in theory only...) for bicycles and agricultural vehicles. A narrow "sidewalk" allows you to drive off the road, but you shouldn't get too dizzy.
