Gare de Bois-le-Roi walks

From Bois-le-Roi to Fontainebleau, walk between forest and rocks far from the beaten track

Long but very nice hike station to station in the Forest of Fontainebleau. It goes through several viewpoints, ponds, little known corners, stunning scenery.

This hike alternates between the rocks of Fontainebleau, the undergrowth, the banks of the Seine with the "Affolantes" of Bois-le-Roi (the beautiful villas), and a return via the Mare aux Évées. Please note: the Rocher Canon becomes very crowded at weekends when the weather is good.

A very varied walk, from the heights of Cuvier Chatillon (beautiful view of the Camp de Chailly) to the banks of the Seine at Bois-le-Roi, and back. Several magnificent trees, including a Japanese Cryptomeria on the road to the Table du Grand Maître and some large oaks below the Point de Vue du Camp de Chailly. Magnificent passage through the Rochers de Cuvier Châtillon (north side).

The Fontainebleau Forest is one of the most beautiful forests in France thanks to its varied landscapes and, above all, its sandstone blocks. This hike, which passes through the Cuvier-Châtillon rocks, the Apremont gorges and the rocks of Mont Ussy, will allow you to appreciate all its beauty but also its fragility, due to both natural erosion and that caused by heavy human traffic, given its proximity to the Paris region.

This loop is accessible by public transport and showcases several aspects of the Forest of Fontainebleau: forest stands of various species, ponds and rocky outcrops. The superb viewpoint at Camp de Chailly is a great place to stop for a break.
