Église Saint-Denis (Beton-Bazoches) walks

This is the twenty-first stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, and the last of the three stages through Brie between Coulommiers and Provins. It is still quite long but without any real difficulty.This stage completes the crossing of Brie, reaching Provins, whose iconic monuments (Caesar's Tower and the dome of the Collegiate Church of Saint-Quiriace) can be seen from afar in good weather, marking the destination of the stage!

Twenty-second stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11. A short stage connecting Longueville to Provins, allowing you to rest after the long previous stages crossing Brie. As the stage is short, we suggest starting with a short circular loop through the old town of Provins to discover its rich heritage.

Nineteenth stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, entirely in Brie, and first stage of a series of three necessary to connect Coulommiers station to Provins station, with two nights on site. As accommodation options are limited in the middle of Brie, it is suggested for this stage to head to La Ferté-Gaucher aerodrome, which is slightly off the GR® route, near which there is a hotel-restaurant where it is possible to spend the night. Although this adds several kilometres to the stage, it offers a good compromise between the length of this stage and the following ones, the longest possible route on the GR® and the proximity to Provins. But this is not the only option, of course: see the Practical Information section for other suggestions.

After walking through the Parc des Capucins and a few paths in Coulommiers, climb up to the former Commandery of the Knights Templar. The route continues mainly between cultivated fields with a few beautiful farmhouses along the way and the beautiful church of Aulnoy. After descending, follow the Grand Morin valley before a final short climb.

From the medieval town of Coulommiers to Provins, via a loop around the Marne in the Paris suburbs, a series of walks starting from a station and crossing the Brie plain, its villages and its rich heritage.

A hike from station to station that alternates between paths through fields and wooded areas. The Sainte-Aubierge Chapel is a peaceful place to stop for a break.
