Vernon car rental driving guide
Driving in and around Vernon
Most of the accommodation, restaurants and visitor facilities are on the south bank of the Seine, while the major visitor attraction, Monet’s gardens at Giverny, is on the north bank, a short drive away. You’ll find there’s only way of getting between the two sides of the River Seine in this area, via the 1950s Clemenceau Bridge in the heart of Vernon.
South of the river, the old town of Vernon is laid out in a grid pattern that’s very easy to navigate. Across the bridge, to the north of the river, the arterial roads fan out in all directions.
Vernon is perfectly placed if you want to take in more of what France has to offer. The capital of the Normandy Region, Rouen, can be reached in an hour via the A13 to the north. Bursting with impressive museums, breathtaking architecture and a stunning cathedral, Rouen is the perfect place for a day trip.
Other major towns nearby are even easier to reach by car. Evreux is a short drive to the west while Beauvais, with it’s incredible cathedral is similar drive to the north-east.
Generally you’ll find it’s easy to get around this part of Normandy, the traffic is usually light and the roads are well maintained. The Vernon Bridge forms a hub for the roads in the area to cross the river, so useful trunk roads branch off in all directions.
