Tips from the Community
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 park isn't exactly top-notch, but you can see that someone is trying not to let everything fall into disrepair. A castle like this can also be a heavy burden.

A 70km-long cycle path built on a former railway line. The best asphalt leads through the beautiful countryside and villages of Normandy.

A mixture of flowers, probably less selective weedkiller: we find nature again.

The marina of Fécamp is a quiet place where sailboats and motorboats moor side by side. The atmosphere is relaxed and as you walk along the water you can see the many white masts reflected in the water. The fish market is particularly worth seeing, offering freshly caught fish and a wide range of seafood. Here you can buy oysters, shrimps and even lobsters. A visit is particularly worthwhile for lovers of fresh seafood. The harbor itself is functional, but with a little luck you might see a historic sailing ship anchored, which adds to the maritime atmosphere.
