Along the river Seine, the Chemin des Sources Bleues (Blue Streams Trail) links two typical villages of the Thatched Cottage Trail: Aizier and Vieux-Port. A prehistoric site, two churches, numerous thatched cottages and the ruins of St Thomas' Chapel, etc.: the local heritage is as significant as the views over the Seine valley are stunning. Comprising many hills, this walking trail mostly runs in the shade of the woods, but also follows some parts of the holloways of the hedgerow country.

In a former meander of the river Seine, this walk offers stunning panoramic views over the Marais-Vernier and its Grand Mare, a large natural lake listed national hunting reserve. You will also be able to see thatched cottages and a beautiful Renaissance dovecote along the way. To walk back up, the slope is steep but the walk and views are worth the effort!

In the hills along the Risle river, between pastures and woodlands, this walk offers beautiful panoramic views over this verdant valley. Halfway, in the hamlet called Vieille Vallée, the landscape combines Norman holloways and Vosgian forests.

Close to the Risle valley, at the edge of the state forest of Montfort, this easy hike reveals a rich heritage which includes three chateaux. The contrasting landscape alternates between forest, with two particularly remarkable beech groves, and plains and open lands, including beautiful bocage areas that feature large pollarded trees.

Exceptional heritage sites, numerous panoramic views over a lush valley, forests and a bocage landscape: this walk is the one that best reflects the identity of the Risle valley and of the Pays Risle Estuaire. It offers a walk in an authentic and lively Normandy, shown in the Priory Park, the starting point, which also holds great events.

This 5.2 km circuit (including 3.6 km on footpaths) takes you on a stroll through wooded hills and valleys.

A special place, assembling a collection of objects associated with the famous French composer in the house where he was born: Claude Debussy's birthplace is located in the historic quarter of Saint-Germain-en-Laye. It was in this 17-century house in the town that Claude Debussy was born, on 22 August 1862, and spent his early childhood. His father ran a china shop on the ground floor. After the composer's death in 1918, it soon became the main gathering place of his many admirers. Once inside, you will discover a wonderful little inner courtyard, where a splendid wooden staircase will lead you up to the museum. The museum, officially recognised as a 'Maison des illustres' ('Houses of the Famous'), displays objects and photographs that help provide a better understanding of the composer's creative process. In fact, Debussy liked to surround himself with objects from different places and artistic movements, which influenced his music. For example, a Japanese lacquered panel, which came from his Parisian mansion, depicting two fish swimming under a willow, musically metamorphosed into 'Poissons d'or', a piano piece (1907). A small museum but a grand tribute to one of France's greatest composers!

One hundred years after his death, Renoir is back in Chatou hologram! Familiarly, he tells us about his vision of painting, the harsh criticisms of his contemporaries, his workshop secrets, his loves, his relatives ... and the fertile inspiration drawn from the banks of the Seine. At the time of the first scandals, Durand-Ruel and some amateurs give him a decisive support by buying him paintings. Alphonse Fournaise is one of the first! He ordered his portrait and that of his daughter for 200 francs. For more than ten years, Renoir made frequent stays at home and around Chatou where he painted about thirty paintings. Aged nearly forty, he began the ambitious Breakfast of the Boaters. This painting, painted on the balcony of the Maison Fournaise, is the result of long research. The painter feels then that he has arrived "at the end of impressionism". This great admirer of the masters of the Italian Renaissance dreams of making this work a bridge between Veronese, Raphael and the modern life of his century.

The Grand Trianon was designed in 1687 by Jules Hardouin-Mansart to allow King Louis XIV to escape the excessive luxury of the Court and to safeguard his love affairs there. The site indeed exudes a sense of intimacy and refinement. The palace is inspired by Italian architecture and invites you to poetry and leisurely strolls. It was built on the site of Louis XIV’s former Porcelain Trianon. A little fun fact: in the past, the Grand Trianon was surrounded by thousands of potted flowers, which were changed every day. Today, this tradition is still maintained with each season. The spectacle was truly unique: flowerbeds bursting with blooms of every color and a wide variety of fragrances filled the air. Later on, the Grand Trianon was frequented by Napoleon Bonaparte and by Presidents of the Republic. From 1962 to 1966, General de Gaulle entrusted André Malraux, then Minister of Cultural Affairs, with the restoration of the Grand Trianon.

The Petit Trianon was built between 1763 and 1768 by the architect Gabriel, requested by Madame de Pompadour, mistress then friend of king Louis XV. Madame de Pompadour, who wished to “relieve the king’s boredom” — though no longer his mistress, she remained his friend — was the instigator of this small château, built by architect Gabriel between 1763 and 1768. It was erected near the Botanical Garden and the new menagerie, as Louis XV had a keen interest in the sciences. To please the marquise, always at the forefront of fashion, the king’s architect broke away from the rococo aesthetic and adopted a cubic form with very pure lines, in keeping with the brand-new “Greek style” then in vogue. Its simplicity is only apparent, for each façade is different, designed in relation to the space it overlooks: the courtyard, the French Garden with its elegant pavilion, the Botanical Garden, and the Florist’s Garden. Inside, one finds the same modernity of style. Simpler than the rest of the estate, the decoration of the Petit Trianon lies not in lavish materials — gilding is almost absent — but in the refinement of its sculptures, in a château entirely dedicated to nature. Madame de Pompadour died in 1764 and never saw the château completed. Today, it is above all the memory of Marie-Antoinette that it evokes. In 1774, Louis XVI gave the Trianon estate to his wife, who was able to live here a life apart — too much so for some — from the Court.

Church of Notre-Dame, in the flamboyant Gothic style, called by Henri IV "the loveliest chapel in the kingdom". Outstanding details are the three doors in the West frontage, the bell tower in the form of tiara and 19 chapels which pertain to a brotherhood.

This museum is devoted to the history of the river, through the life of its fishermen, its sailors, its shipbuilders and today s navigators. See the oldest existing traditional Seine vessel, the last gribane, called the Joble, which was launched in 1886, recalling the mascaret which the town was famous for - the steep-fronted tidal wave, or bore which moved up the river.

Legend has it that one day in 1216, during a particularly severe storm, fishermen turned to the Virgin: when the calm returned after their prayer, they came ashore and found a statue of Mary, which they hurried to protect in a chapel built for her. This is how the chapel of Barre-y-Va was founded? What is certain is that Caudebec has long been the tragic scene of a deadly phenomenon, especially for sailors: the tidal bore, an unpredictable wave coming up from the sea during high tides. The chapel overlooking the meander of the river is dedicated to those lost at sea and to protecting those alive. The chapel itself and its small oratory, called the "blue chapel" because of its stained glass window, are moving and should be visited to get to know the fate of the sailors in the past and the persistence of votive offerings.

Ruins of a 13th and 14th cenuries Abbey-church. The current church (set in a converted barn) and the cloister are open to visitors. The rest of the buildings of the monastery (Classical period) are inhabited by Benedictine monks.

Traces of it remain today, more precisely those of a keep and a large hall.
