This stage is unique in that it runs along the border between the Val d'Oise and Oise departments, with roughly 50% of the route on each side. The proposed itinerary passes through the Buttes de Rosne, the highest natural point in Île-de-France, although it deviates slightly from the GR® for this.

Around Menouville
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.
The Viosne Valley around Us

Commeny and return via Santeuil
A 17.5-kilometre route starting from Commeny (Val d'Oise) and passing through Santeuil.For fans of naturist hiking (known as "randonue" to those in the know), certain sections of this route can be covered completely naked. Although encounters with other people are possible, the risk is minimal. Don't forget to bring something to cover yourself with (skirt, shorts, sarong, etc.), especially when passing through villages, so as not to shock anyone you might meet. Always be courteous and explain your naturist approach. This hike can of course be done fully clothed, with nudity being a bonus for randonue enthusiasts.The hike starts and ends in the village of Commeny in front of the church. There are parking spaces on Rue de l'Église and in the adjacent streets. There is no public transport to Commeny.
Loop around Commeny

You will walk along the Bois de la Brosse, where there is a fountain where you can refresh yourself and fill your water bottle before continuing towards the hamlet of Le Vivray. With all your senses awakened, you will be able to appreciate the diversity of this wetland plain. In Loconville, you can see the church where Sylvie Vartan and Johnny Halliday were married. Your route will then take you back via the Château de Rebetz and its magnificent golf course.
Chaumont loop via Laillerie
This walk will introduce you to this small town, which has just been awarded the title of "Petite Cité de Caractère" (Small Town of Character). Before leaving the town hall, where the tour starts, discover the Raymond Pillon Museum of Archaeology and Palaeontology and its rich collection. The town, crossed by numerous waterways, is centred around the Place de la Foulerie, so named because, in the past, flax harvested in the surrounding countryside was fulled there. Throughout the tour, you will have numerous views of the magnificent 16th-century church, which resembles a small cathedral. If you wish, you can take this tour with a guide on thethird Sunday of each month at 3pm.
