Rich in historical and cultural heritage, the stretch of the Seine valley that connects the region of Paris to Normandy boasts spectacular landscapes carved by the entrenched, meandering, cliff-lined River Seine. This part of Normandy has captivated painters and writers for centuries and today, it makes for an inspiring horseback adventure immersed in nature.
This 76km horse-riding trail follows the Seine Valley through many changing landscapes, from atmospheric woods to rolling grasslands, from steep hillsides punctuated by white chalk pinnacles to open moors.
