Machault (Seine-et-Marne) walks

Variation of the "From vineyards to orchards in the Javot valley" hike available on the FFRP Seine-et-Marne hiking website.

A loop offering beautiful views of the Seine and its valley! After an initial section in the forest, the trail follows a pleasant path along the riverbank, offering superb panoramic views. The hike ends on the banks of the Seine, with a picturesque passage on the small island of Basses Godernes.

A hike from station to station, mainly through a section of the Fontainebleau Forest that is not among the most frequented. The forest route alternates between wide paths and trails that wind through rocky terrain. Before that, the crossing of Thomery offers beautiful heritage sites, including its grape walls and some beautiful views of the Seine.

A walk along the Seine, with the village of Fontaine-le-Port, a section ofthe GR®2 trailoverlooking the Seine towards Chartrettes, then the Bois-le-Roi leisure centre on the other side of the river.

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.

A rural hike that alternates between old villages, former quarries, forest and the banks of the Seine. The road that was previously used for the return journey has changed from a private road to a public road and is no longer suitable for walking, hence a significant change to the route.

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.

Long but very nice hike station to station in the Forest of Fontainebleau. It goes through several viewpoints, ponds, little known corners, stunning scenery.

Visit the medieval town of Moret-sur-Loing coming from Saint-Mammès along the banks of the Loing. Return along the banks of the Seine. Check the opening hours of the Pont Loup museum. Please note: on Sunday mornings, there is a market in the car park. The route has been significantly modified to take into account various passages that have become unusable by pedestrians and to avoid walking along the railway line on the way back, without walking too much on tarmac.

Rising between Forterre and Puisaye, and after a course of more than 150 kilometres, the Loing flows into the Seine to the south-east of the Forest of Fontainebleau. This rather short route runs alongside these two rivers and the Canal du Loing for much of its length. A section through the forest adds variety to the landscape. The beautiful old Saint-Mammès Church and a few reproductions of paintings by Alfred Sisley add an undeniable touch of heritage to this walk.

This hike, which begins and ends in the forest of Fontainebleau, takes us on a journey to discover the painter Rosa Bonheur (1822-1899) and the château where she lived and set up her studio. We then stroll among the old vine walls that made Thomery famous in its day. A footpath offers the opportunity for a picturesque walk along the banks of the Seine.

A day's hike to enjoy the charm of the southern part of the Forest of Fontainebleau, combining rocky trails, beautiful woodland paths and the historical interest of villages and small towns (Bourron-Marlotte, Veneux-les-Sablons).

It is a short, relatively easy circuit exploring some curiosities of the forest of Fontainebleau around the Avon SNCF train station, namely the views over the Croix du Calvaire, the Sponge Rock, Denecourt Tower and fountains. One could also call it the fountain circuit.

Hike in the Forest of Fontainebleau, with no difficulty except for a short steep climb, away from the busy paths and perfectly marked from start to finish.

An easy route on marked paths, passing several interesting points of interest: monuments, Roche Éponge, springs, Tour Dénécourt, Mares Froideau, Rocher Cassepot, Rocher Saint-Germain, Grotte aux Cristaux, Mare à Piat, Butte Saint-Louis and Petit Mont. Most of the route is in the shade, with beautiful trees.

A succession of beautiful, long, shaded and sunny paths between two rocky outcrops. Discover the natural diversity of the Fontainebleau Massif with minimal road crossings.

The Rocher des Princes is a medium-difficulty loop in the pretty Fontainebleau Forest. It alternates between fairly steep climbs and descents with flat paths, allowing you to rest between the difficult sections.

Hiking around Varenne-sur-Seine. The trails leading to springs, mills and wash houses complete this circuit, passing by the Noue Notre-Dame leisure centre and the botanical garden with its castle.

A lovely circular along the Ancœuil. Walking along this river is very pleasant when the weather is warm.
