Insider tip — This geothermal warm-water source in the Seine valley near Incarville is a rare find in Normandy, where deep drilling has revealed warm aquifers beneath the chalk geology of the Eure department. The water emerges at around 38°C and is notable for its scarcity in this otherwise cool-climate region. The site sits along the Seine corridor between Rouen and Paris, making it an unusual geothermal curiosity for the area. Such deep thermal sources in the Paris Basin are typically associated with Dogger-age Jurassic limestone formations.
