The Crécy Forest circular starting from Mortcerf
This circular allows you to enjoy the beautiful forests, mainly oak, of the Crécy Forest. Three-quarters of the route is in the woods, while the rest takes you through two charming villages, each with a remarkable castle and an elegant church. A few other points of interest are indicated, including the memorial to the poet Étienne Jodelle (1532-1573), a contemporary of the much better-known Pierre Ronsard.
The forest was very lively when I visited (at the end of December): despite a large wild boar hunt in progress, I saw three deer (in three different places) and a fox.
The GPX track can be very useful in the forest, given the various changes in direction.

From Crécy-la-Chapelle station to Meaux station via Bouleurs and Boutigny
An original route from south to north, more rural than wooded, passing through interesting villages. The zigzag route makes it easy to shorten for those intimidated by the distance: we recommend cutting from point to point, which allows you to visit all the villages along the route, reducing the distance to less than 20 km. Only the aqueduct section would then be left out.The start and finish are accessible by bus from the Chessy-Marne-la-Vallée RER-TGV station, or by train.

A hike from station to station, through woods and fields, criss-crossing the Marsange river. The route passes through several villages in the Brie region with a rich heritage.
From Coulommiers to Mouroux via the village of Aulnoy
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 Coulommiers to Chartronges through Brie
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.
Along the Chalifert Canal and then the Marne d'Esbly to Thorigny
A walk along the water, first along a canal and then along the Marne. The only elevation gain is at Côte Saint-Jacques, which the canal crosses via a tunnel. The outdoor sculptures near the Dhuys footbridge add a touch of heritage.

From Ozoir-la-Ferrière to Yvris via the Ferrières Regional Forest
The Grande Randonnée trail, which crosses the massif from one side to the other, offers walkers idyllic scenes, such as the surroundings of the Mare du Cormier, or bucolic moments, such as chestnut picking!
