Around Étrépilly via Puiseux

A lovely 2-hour ride at a walk and trot, including a section on a country road (at a brisk pace), suitable for experienced riders.

This route can also be done on foot (3 hours), by bike (50 mins), or on horseback (at a walk: 1 hour 30 mins, at all three gaits: 50 mins).

A bit of tarmac, the rest of the paths are very pleasant dirt and grass tracks; this route can also be done by bike.

Enjoyable in both directions.
