A very pleasant walk that begins along the surrounding wall of a castle beautifully set in its grounds. The walk takes you through the hamlet of Héréville with its beautiful houses and charming tranquillity. Although the route ends on a road, it is very quiet and the narrowness of the road forces cars to drive at a speed that makes them very tolerable.

On the Vexin plateau, discover Château Molle and the Cavée du Lay. 360° views over the Vexin plateaus.

A route through the Vexin region starting from the charming Saint-Martin Church in Vallangoujard. The first half is shaded, beginning alongside streams and ponds. The second half is in open countryside, amongst the fields.

A circular route through five villages in the Vexin Regional Park, partly following the old Valmondois Marines railway line, a secondary line that closed in the 1950s but whose old stations are still visible.

The circuit starts by taking you along the Sausseron valley, then climbs up the hillside and continues through fields. You return to Nesles via paths through the woods. The circuit also allows you to discover a unique site called the Trou à Morts.

A very bucolic walk in the heights of the French Vexin, passing close to the highest point in the Ile-de-France region. A beautiful forest to cross until you reach the house that was once inhabited by Sarah Bernhardt. Return through the fields across a beautiful landscape at the edge of Picardy.

A varied hike through woods and fields with two beautiful churches in Bréançon and Le Heaulme. Lovely views over vast fields of green wheat, dotted here and there with red poppies. It's a shame there's a bit too much road.

This is a beautiful walk at the entrance to the Oise, in the valleys between Anserville and Fosseuse. The walk takes you through fields and woods.

On the way back, the route returns to L'Isle-Adam along the banks of the Oise.

A very varied hike through green valleys, cultivated plateaus and forests. Some beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and the crossing of villages with interesting architectural heritage make it very enjoyable.

A pleasant hike along the Sausseron, a small stream in Valmondois, past the mills and back via the steam tramway museum and its old railway line.

A lovely walk through three different types of landscape: the Sausseron valley, cultivated plateaus (with beautiful unobstructed views over the rolling hills of the Vexin), and varied woodlands, mainly comprising chestnut, beech and birch groves, with a few oaks, and, in the valley, poplar groves. Two exceptional points of interest: Saint-Symphorien Church and the Tour du Lay stone polishing site. Not to mention the many old mills on the Sausseron, beautiful country houses, and interesting stone crosses along the paths. As for famous figures, the village honours (with a villa and bust) Honoré Daumier, the great caricaturist who died in Valmondois in 1879. Another, more contemporary artist has donated a series of sculptures on permanent display in Michel Charpentier’s Sculpture Garden.

Half of the route takes you through the Forest of L'Isle-Adam. This hike from station to station offers other points of interest, including two covered walkways dating from the Neolithic period.
