Angicourt walks

Hike through beautiful rolling countryside, quiet villages and the banks of the Oise.

A pleasant walk through fields and woods where, with a bit of luck, you might spot a deer.

This hike is long enough to showcase all aspects of the Halatte forest: tall beech and oak trees, coppice with oak trees and lime trees in the undergrowth, and large cultivated clearings, the largest of which is Fleurines. Most of the route follows the beautiful forest roads that were built several centuries ago.

Short walk in the Halatte National Forest from Fleurines via Mont Pagnotte and the hamlet of Saint Christophe. The former priory of Saint-Christophe is now the main feature of Fleurines' architectural heritage and is listed as a historic monument . The commune also boasts a rich natural and landscape heritage and is part of a natural area of ecological, faunistic and floristic interest (ZNIEFF). Since its creation in 2004, Fleurines has also been part of the Oise Pays de France Regional Nature Park.

Discover the armoured boundary stones along the forest trails...

Former capital of the Sylvanectes Gauls, Senlis was known as Augustomagus in the 1st century, during the reign of the Roman Emperor Claudius. From the 3rd century onwards, thanks to its walls, the Gallo-Roman enclosure of Senlis was one of the best-preserved in northern Gaul. The date of construction has still not been determined. What remains certain, as was already established in the 19th century, is that the fortifications were built after the passage of the Germanic hordes in 275–276, and after the year 278, withstanding the barbarian invasions and later the Norman raids. Senlis boasts a history spanning ten centuries of virtually uninterrupted royal presence. The town was the site of a Merovingian and later Carolingian castle or palace from the early Middle Ages onwards; although it has completely disappeared and there is no definitive archaeological evidence, it is mentioned in numerous ancient deeds and documents.

This hike allows you to discover the biodiversity of the western part of the Halatte National Forest, including the different species of coniferous and deciduous trees that make it up. The route winds through a hilly massif that offers some beautiful views.

A fairly easy hike from Aumont-en-Halatte with a slight elevation gain, in the Halatte National Forest, skirting the village of Fleurines. Two beautiful viewpoints along the route, best enjoyed in summer when the weather is warm.

Ansacq is a village located at the beginning of a small, narrow, green valley cutting into the southern edge of the Clermont massif, gradually widening to open out onto Angy, in the Thérain valley, a small, narrow, green valley.

Tenth stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, connecting the Cires-lès-Mello railway station to the Chantilly-Gouvieux railway station, around the River Oise and two of its tributaries, the Thérain and the Nonette. The built heritage here is remarkable, between the abbey church of Saint-Leu d'Esserent and, of course, the town and estate of Chantilly.

This loop, starting from Villers-Saint-Frambourg, takes place in the Forêt d'Halatte. The paved forest roads follow the dirt tracks. We climb Mont Pagnotte via the south face. After a long descent, we go around the mountain to climb it again, but this time via the north face. The ascent is less difficult as it follows a beautiful path. After a long descent, we return to our starting point.

Chantilly is the largest racehorse training centre in Europe. The forest is criss-crossed by numerous galloping tracks that are usable all year round thanks to the quality of the sand.

Beautiful views of the château, the Grandes Écuries and the Canal Saint-Jean add to the charm of the circuit.

Eleventh stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, connecting Chantilly-Gouvieux station to the village of Borest, reached by crossing the Chantilly estate, the Chantilly and Ermenonville forests, with a detour through the historic centre of Senlis and, optionally, a moment of reflection in front of the memorial to the victims of the March 1974 plane crash. The route follows, more or less closely, the Nonette River, which is crossed several times. The route for this stage is almost entirely in the forest, with little elevation gain, making it a very pleasant hike, and the crossings of Chantilly and Senlis add a rich touch of heritage. This stage requires an overnight stay to avoid laborious car manoeuvres. It is therefore the first of two consecutive stages, both entirely within the Oise department, between the Chantilly-Gouvieux and Crépy-en-Valois railway stations.
