If you are considering La Neuville-Du-Bosc as a destination, you can focus on your interests in walking trails, the Voie verte, Jardin Ruffin and Église Sainte Catherine. Each has a different appeal.

Walking trails and the Voie verte

The Circuit du Bosc is a 7.5-kilometre walking route for pedestrians. Its stated length helps you gauge the scale of the walk. The Circuit La Neuville-du-Bosc – Le Bosc offers a different landscape: it follows green paths through two dry valleys, and much of the route lies in the forest. At the bottom of the valley, you can see the quarries at “Trou Tassin.” The valley terrain, forest and quarries give this circular route several specific landscape features to look out for.

The Voie verte runs between Évreux and Le Bec Hellouin. It can be used on foot, by bicycle or on roller skates. This gives you another way to assess the route according to your preferred mode of travel; these stated uses apply to the Voie verte, not automatically to the two walking trails. Access to the Voie verte is at a railway station. If this access point is important to your plans, check it in advance.

When choosing a walk, it helps to distinguish clearly between the names: the Circuit du Bosc is described by its length and as a route for pedestrians. By contrast, the Circuit La Neuville-du-Bosc – Le Bosc is characterized by its green paths, two dry valleys, forest and the quarries at “Trou Tassin.” This lets you compare each route description with what you are especially interested in seeing along the way, without treating the two routes as the same.

Jardin Ruffin and Église Sainte Catherine

Visitors can discover more than 800 plant varieties at Jardin Ruffin; this number may change. The garden covers 2,600 m² and includes 200 roses. These three figures describe different aspects: the variety of plants, the garden’s area and the number of roses. If plants and garden design are your main interests, Jardin Ruffin offers a distinct focus alongside the walking trails.

Église Sainte Catherine also spans several periods: it was built in the 14th century and rebuilt in the 16th century. Several coats of arms depicting the Passion of Christ can be seen on its exterior wall. The building’s history and religious imagery offer two specific points of interest if you are drawn to architecture and history. The coats of arms mentioned are on the outside of the church.

When planning your trip, you can weigh these themes separately: the route descriptions specify uses, length and landscape features; Jardin Ruffin is characterized by its plant varieties, area and roses; and the church’s building history and coats of arms are its main points of interest.
