Departure from Cesson (Seine-et-Marne)
Cesson, its neighbourhoods and the Briard villages to the west, the Seine, a few ponds, a wash house, calvaries, a castle and a forest. Prehistoric remains, a menhir in the Bois de Sainte-Assise and the remains of a Gallo-Roman villa in the windmill plain bear witness to the ancient occupation of our territory. Not far from the Ru de Balory, at the end of Rue de la Fontaine, there was a spring, now tapped, near which people settled in the Middle Ages, soon building a church dedicated to Saint Martin. The development of the village and its two main hamlets, Saint-Leu and Verneau, was relatively slow. A table drawn up in 1793 shows that there were around 250 citizens.

Departure from Bois-le-Roi (Seine-et-Marne) (Seine-et-Marne)
This stage of the GR®1 connects Bois-le-Roi to Le Vaudoué. It is the only stage that does not end at a train station. This hike is unique in that it crosses the Forest of Fontainebleau and its many beautiful rocks. There are several points of interest along this section, which is entirely forested: the tree at Carrefour des Longues Vallées, the rocks at Cuvier Chatillon, the viewpoint at Gorges d'Apremont and Gorges de Franchard (worth visiting if you don't mind walking a little further), as well as the Chapel of Prieuré Notre-Dame de Franchard and the church at Vaudoué.
