Circuit International de Karting Lucien Lebret

In the Seine valley, in Anneville-Ambourville, the Lucien Lebret International Karting Circuit stretches across 1,000 metres of outdoor track on one of the Seine's emblematic bends, halfway between Rouen and Le Havre. The site sits in the Boucles de la Seine regional park, a preserved setting of apple trees, Norman thatched cottages, and old abbeys. Set away from major axes, it's an address valued by experienced Norman drivers looking for a technical course without heading down to Paris.

The 1,000-metre open-air layout offers a real driving course : straights long enough to push speeds and technical sequences that demand precision and good line-reading. Several kart engine sizes are available depending on driver level, from entry-level models for younger drivers to punchier versions for regulars chasing timed sessions. The site stays accessible for family initiation runs and regularly hosts group events : birthday parties, stag and hen parties, corporate seminars, and amateur competitions in the Norman setting.

Anneville-Ambourville is 30 minutes from Rouen and an hour from Le Havre via the D982. The region offers plenty to extend the visit: Jumièges and Saint-Wandrille abbeys, the thatched-cottage route, the Seine valley with its viewpoints, or a detour to Honfleur and the Côte fleurie an hour away. A solid pick for motorsport fans wanting to combine motoring with tourism in historic Normandy.
