Departure from Bombon (Seine-et-Marne)
A moderate-difficulty walk, with little elevation gain, west of Bombon, passing through Saint-Méry, then across fields and two small woods. It then follows and crosses the Ru d’Ancœur, the Ru de la Prée and the Ru des Moines, passing by the Flagy Mill and the Voies Mill
Bombon was the birthplace of the 1918 Victory. Indeed, General Foch moved his command post to Bombon in 1918. His marshal’s baton ‘was presented to him in the castle’s main courtyard in the presence of all the chiefs of staff, Marshal Haig, Marshal Pershing, General Pétain and the highest political authorities, the President of the Republic, Raymond Poincaré, Clemenceau […], Painlevé, former Minister of War and former President of the Council. General Weygand […] was by his side.”

Departure from Bois-le-Roi (Seine-et-Marne) (Seine-et-Marne)
This stage of the GR®1 connects Bois-le-Roi to Le Vaudoué. It is the only stage that does not end at a train station. This hike is unique in that it crosses the Forest of Fontainebleau and its many beautiful rocks. There are several points of interest along this section, which is entirely forested: the tree at Carrefour des Longues Vallées, the rocks at Cuvier Chatillon, the viewpoint at Gorges d'Apremont and Gorges de Franchard (worth visiting if you don't mind walking a little further), as well as the Chapel of Prieuré Notre-Dame de Franchard and the church at Vaudoué.

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.

Departure from Fontainebleau (Seine-et-Marne)
This hike is accessible by train, which drops you off in the middle of the forest (Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays). The route mainly follows the Denecourt-Colinet trails, nicknamed "blue trails" because of the colour of their markings. It winds through the undergrowth, far from the wide forest paths, and on several sections, it twists and turns among the rocks.
