St lubin des joncherets

Saint-Lubin-des-Joncherets is a small town in the Eure-et-Loir department, within the Centre-Val de Loire region, sitting right on the edge of Normandy along the banks of the River Avre. Its location, just a few kilometres from Verneuil-sur-Avre and not far from Dreux, makes it a convenient base for exploring this rural area straddling two regions. The local landscape, shaped by the river and its wetlands, reflects the origin of the town's name, which recalls the rushes that once lined these banks. The setting is quiet and green, ideal for walks along the Avre and for discovering the surrounding hedgerow countryside. The town has a railway station providing convenient links to Paris and Normandy, making it a practical starting point for exploring the region without relying solely on a car. The surrounding area offers a typical slice of Norman and Beauce countryside, with small villages, farms and unspoilt natural spaces. For those seeking nature and tranquillity, this rural territory makes for a pleasant stopover, halfway between the region's larger towns and the wilder landscapes of the neighbouring Perche.
