Gare de Cesson walks
The Bréviande Forest and the ponds of Cesson-la-Forêt
A hike mostly in the forest, with sections in suburban areas and along ponds.
Cesson Circular and the Briard Villages
Cesson, its neighbourhoods and the Briard villages to the west, the Seine, a few ponds, a wash house, calvaries, a castle and a forest. Prehistoric remains, a menhir in the Bois de Sainte-Assise and the remains of a Gallo-Roman villa in the windmill plain bear witness to the ancient occupation of our territory. Not far from the Ru de Balory, at the end of Rue de la Fontaine, there was a spring, now tapped, near which people settled in the Middle Ages, soon building a church dedicated to Saint Martin. The development of the village and its two main hamlets, Saint-Leu and Verneau, was relatively slow. A table drawn up in 1793 shows that there were around 250 citizens.
Slices of Brie from station to station
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.
Walks near Gare de Cesson
Following the Essonne
Named after Acionna, the Gallo-Roman goddess of rivers, the Essonne flows through the north of the Loiret department and the south of the Île-de-France region. The first five stages follow its course downstream, while the last four follow it upstream. These nine stages are accessible by train. One stage, which is not accessible by train, forms a circular route upstream. The route alternates between paths along the river, passages through woods and those across cultivated plateaus.
From Quincy to Montgeron along the Yerres
This is an unusual route, as the outward journey is by train from Montgeron station to Combs la Ville-Quincy-sous-Sénart station, and the return journey is on foot along a path that largely follows the banks of the Yerres.
From Mennecy to Corbeil-Essonnes via Robinson Park
This last stage of the journey along the Essonne offers many opportunities to play leapfrog with the river. It is obviously the stage with the most urban sections. The town of Corbeil-Essonnes reveals its rich religious, civil and industrial heritage.
From Bois-le-Roi to Le Vaudoué
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.
Walk in the north of the Forest of Fontainebleau
From Bois-le-Roi to Fontainebleau, walk between forest and rocks far from the beaten track
From Bois-le-Roi to Boissise-le-Roi via the Mare aux Évées
A hike from station to station, the first half of which takes place entirely in the northern part of the Forest of Fontainebleau, with a passage through the rocky chaos of Rocher Canon and then to the mysterious Mare aux Évées. The route then becomes much more urban, passing through several residential areas. It finally ends on the Seine towpath.
A grand tour of the Fontainebleau Forest
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.
From Fontaine-le-Port to Champagne-sur-Seine via the hillsides on the right bank
A hike from station to station high up on the right bank of the Seine, offering beautiful views of the river and the nearby Forest of Fontainebleau. The first and last thirds of the hike follow paths that wind through the forest. In between, the route alternates between fields, woods and residential areas, with some interesting heritage sites.
