It will be cooler in Normandy than in Paris!

*** Kindly note that the activity will only be maintained if no heat wave (more than 30 degrees in Normandy) and no thunderstorms are expected ***

We will take the train that leaves St Lazare station in Paris at 09:43 am - our destination will be Val-de-Reuil.

As it is a popular destination, please take your train ticket + bike ticket in advance. You can do it online, on the SNCF Connect website : you have to add your bike directly while making the reservation.

I suggest we take different carriages, because otherwise we will not have any space for our bikes.

We will all meet on the platform at Val-de-Reuil. If our train is not late, it will arrive there at 11:24 am.

From there, we will follow the Seine River. We will admire beautiful views, for instance, the romantic looking ruin of Château Gaillard castle which belonged to Richard the Lionheart!

We will have our picnic in some nice place - please bring a snack to share and a cloth to sit on. If you are not afraid to swim in the Seine, bring your swimming suit as well!

We will take our train back to Paris from the station Gaillon Aubevoye - the train leaves at 17:29.

It's a 50 km itinerary: please check your bike technical condition in advance and bring some basic tools with you + a bike pump.

See you on the 12th of July! 😊
