A beautiful, challenging hike in the forest, just a stone's throw from Paris. Choose between 25 km or 35 km, with 700 and 900 m of elevation gain respectively.

The forest is beautiful, and there are some lovely views, but the appeal is more athletic than touristy.
The route includes many quick changes of direction, making it difficult to follow without GPS.
