Commeny and return via Santeuil

de fr

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.

Description of the walk

The walk starts from Commeny Church on Rue de l'Église. You will find parking spaces either in front of the church or in the adjacent streets.

(S/E) To be in the direction of the walk, the church should be on your left. Turn right onto Grande Rue.

(1) At the corner of the bakery, turn left onto Rue du Stade and walk past the Bread Museum (visits by appointment only). Continue to the Y-junction at the edge of the village.

(2) Take the path on the left and continue straight ahead to the crossroads.

(3) Turn left and continue straight ahead.

(4) Turn left onto the tarmac road and continue to the intersection (elevation 105).

(5) Turn onto the path furthest to the right and continue right until you reach the road. Cross the road and continue to a fork.

(6) Continue straight ahead on the Chars à Moussy path. Go straight ahead at the crossroads and reach a second one on the PR®.

(7) Turn right and you will reach a mill.

(8) Continue on the right.

(9) Take the tarmac road on the left. At the level crossing, leave the tarmac road and take the path on the right. It runs alongside the railway line. You will come to a crossroads.

(10) Be careful at this point, as it is easy to take the wrong path. Keep slightly to the left and leave the path that veers slightly to the right. The path you need to take is not very visible. Keep in mind that you need to follow the railway line. Continue along the railway line until you reach Santeuil. Naturists will need to get dressed before reaching this point.

(11) Turn right onto Rue Jean Mermoz and continue to the next crossroads.

(12) Take Rue des Epagnes on the right, until you reach the path of the same name.

(13) Take Sentiers des Epagnes on the left and continue straight ahead until the end of the path.

(14) Turn right onto the tarmac road and continue until you reach a right-hand bend and its intersection.

(15) Take the path on the left and return to the junction you passed on the way there.

(6) Turn left and return to the starting point via the same route you took on the way there (S/E).
