La Véloferrée

Pedal along an old railway line in pursuit of the region's must-sees: flax fields, castles, and the Bec-Hellouin Abbey.

Before your first pedal strokes, visit Evreux, newly labeled as a "city of art and history." The Notre-Dame Cathedral and the belfry are must-see places. After this city tour, pedal along the old railway line crossing forests and fields. To admire the flax flowers, a typical crop of the region, don't keep your head down. A few kilometers later, you enter the town of Le Neubourg: take a break there. Local products, a lively market, and cultural discoveries await you. After this moment of relaxation, hit the road again and travel through medieval times. Along your way, you'll discover the Harcourt estate and its incredible arboretum. To end your ride beautifully, head towards Bec-Hellouin, designated as one of the "Most Beautiful Villages of France." This authentic village will welcome you with its Benedictine abbey.
