La Chaussée-D'ivry: Nature, Hiking and Culture

La Chaussée-D'ivry and the hamlets of Nantilly and Les Gâtines Rouges lie on the banks of the Eure, amid a well-preserved natural heritage. There are several specific points of interest to help you plan your trip: nature walks at Côte de Nantilly, a hiking route, a cycling route, Église Saint-Blaise and golf.

Natural areas and walks

Côte de Nantilly is notable for its very diverse vegetation and is designated as a Natura 2000 site. The area is well suited to nature walks for those interested in fauna and flora, as well as for families. Two perspectives can help you find your way: the banks of the Eure form the landscape setting for La Chaussée-D'ivry, Nantilly and Les Gâtines Rouges; Côte de Nantilly adds a specific focus on nature, with its vegetation and walking opportunities. This allows you to plan a stay around both the local landscape and a particular nature theme.

Hiking and cycling

For a walk, the 6.7-kilometre circular route “La Chaussée-d'Ivry – Le cheval blanc” starts at the church car park. Check the route details again before setting out. The 25-kilometre cycling route “Découverte d'Anet, La Chaussée d'Ivry, Guainville, Gilles et Oulins” includes a cycle path on its section from La Chaussée-d'Ivry towards Oulins. Different criteria can therefore guide your choice: the hike offers a shorter, set distance and a named starting point, while the cycling route covers a longer distance and includes a cycle path towards Oulins. You can start by choosing between a walk and a bike ride.

Église Saint-Blaise and local history

Église Saint-Blaise offers a distinct point of historical interest. Its origins date mainly to the 13th century, and it was first mentioned in 1215. These dates serve different purposes: 1215 marks its first mention, while the dating of its origins places the church mainly in the 13th century. Since 13 July 1926, the bell tower and stair tower have been partially protected as historic monuments. The first mention, origins and protection date thus describe three separate historical reference points.

Golf and seasonal produce

Golf Parc Robert Hersant is open for play all year round. The course lies alongside bodies of water, surrounded by or overlooked by hills covered with deciduous trees. Playability and landscape provide two different points of interest: alongside its year-round availability, the surroundings also shape the character of this golf offering.

Ferme des Gâtines Rouges offers seasonal, locally grown produce; fresh home-grown vegetables are sold directly on site. Its seasonality differs from the golf course's schedule: while the course is playable all year round, the produce is seasonal. When planning your travel dates, you can take these two aspects into account as distinct points of interest.
