    Visible from miles around, the spires of Chartres Cathedral mark the starting point of this family walk along the Eure.

    From the historic center, the medieval district of the city, the Eure River traces the route between half-timbered houses, ponds, washhouses...

    An immersion into the Eure valley for a refreshing walk.
