Passages on platières in the middle of the moor with an unobstructed view, interspersed with passages in undergrowth and amid boulders. A varied, rather sporty hike. N.B. The drop is probably underestimated: expect something more in the order of 300 metres.

A beautiful hike with some elevation gain in the wildest and most beautiful areas of the Trois Pignons massif. It combines the beautiful Dénécourt trail no. 16 (the Sentier des Belvédères via the Laris Qui Parle) with a more athletic section of the Circuit des 25 Bosses. Actual elevation gain (altimeter measurement): 580m.

A simple and varied circuit in the forest of Fontainebleau, with views above the trees and rocks, and different landscapes every kilometre. Please note that weather conditions and the use of certain paths by mountain bikes can make this hike muddy and very slippery in places. Therefore, please be very careful.

Barbizon, the city of painters. There are numerous frescoes on the walls of the Grande Rue, depicting the paintings of our great artists. And there is a natural rock sculpture representing "the Elephant".

This circuit offers a large loop that connects Barbizon to the Rocher de Milly, passing through Isatis and the Rochers des Sablons (very beautiful sandstone quarries). It then joins the Hurlevent viewpoint, crosses the beautiful and wild Touche aux Mulets plateau, then, after crossing the Rocher de Milly again, reaches Franchard, the Gorges d'Apremont and the André Billy viewpoint. Many "wild" and unfrequented sections.

This circuit connects the Gorges d'Apremont and the Gorges de Franchard, passing by the beautiful viewpoint of Camp d'Arbonne and offering a little-known view of the Désert d'Apremont. It uses some sections of the Denecourt-Colinet trails, runs along some peaceful paths with poetic names and passes by the beautiful Mare aux Sangliers.

Embark on a journey to Cythera, follow paths of seduction and tenderness, and make a date with happiness on this hike in the southern part of the Forest of Fontainebleau. In one area of this vast forest, the paths have been named after romantic figures... On this very wooded route, other references are used to name the paths: different kinds of birds, bandits and other criminals, and even the pope...

As the name suggests, is this route ascends 25 mounds that form a circuit of the of the Trois Pignons forest. A hike amid the rocks that makes an excellent training run before mountain hikes in the summer. N.B. The elevation is underestimated: between 800 and 900 metres total cumulative change in altitude. It’s difficult to find a larger change in altitude in the Ile-de-France, unless you want to take the steps up and down the Eiffel Tower three times on the trot. Expect to be walking for 6 to 7 hours.
