Montigny-sur-Loing walks
The Plaine de Sorques from Montigny-sur-Loing
An easy hike with two bird observatories at the Plaine de Sorques, a sensitive natural area.
Bring binoculars.
From Montigny to Thomery via Long Rocher and Malmontagne
A hike from station to station through the eastern part of the Forest of Fontainebleau, which is not the most popular area of this forest. The forest trail alternates between wide paths and trails that wind through rocky terrain. Several viewpoints offer extensive panoramic views.
From Montigny-sur-Loing to Moret-Veneux-les-Sablons
A hike from station to station starting from Montigny-sur-Loing. A varied route through the forest with a few rocks and the banks of the Loing. The Loing valley is an authentic green paradise that can be explored over a medium distance via footpaths, rural tracks and towpaths. This route takes you along the river and the canal of the same name, which flow side by side until they meet the Seine.
From the Sorques Nature Reserve to the Béatrix Cave
This walk takes you along part of the Blue Trail of the Restant du Long Rocher, approaching it from the east.
From the Sorques plain (a nature reserve on the banks of the Loing), it joins Route Blue No. 11 via little-used paths and, along the way, offers a beautiful view of the southern part of the forest with its "Table du Roi", before reaching Haut-Mont (two very different viewpoints).
As is often the case in Bleau, the landscape changes almost at every junction...
The Plaine de Sorques and Marion des Roches
After a short climb up Mont Marion, you will skirt around the Plaine de Sorques, which is a sensitive natural area and a bird sanctuary.
Plaine Verte car park
Flat terrain to warm up, ending with rocks...
Episy, its marsh and the Etang de la Genevraye
A circular route around the Étang de la Genevraye and a visit to the Marais d'Episy, which presents no difficulty.
Episy-Ecuelles
An easy, almost entirely flat hike from Episy to Ecuelles via theGR® de Pays du Lunain, passing behind the Episy aerodrome. The return journey is along the towpath beside the Canal du Loing. This route is easily manageable for a brave child.
La Mare aux Fées, La Malmontagne, Le Carrosse and the Grotte Béatrix
A loop in the heart of Fontainebleau: a magnificent poetic pond, venerable oak trees, four viewpoints, memories of revolutionary battles, a cave, a chasm, sandstone cliffs... and plenty of peace and quiet.
From Bourron-Marlotte to Montigny-sur-Loing via the Rocher des Étroitures
A hike from station to station in the south-east of the Forest of Fontainebleau. In addition to passing through two pretty villages, the start and end of this route follow good forest paths. In between, you follow trails that wind through rocky terrain, with several beautiful viewpoints, the lovely Mare aux Fées and the Grotte Béatrix.
From Bourron-Marlotte to Bois-le-Roi through the Forest of Fontainebleau
A south-to-north traverse of the Forest of Fontainebleau, from station to station! The long route showcases all aspects of this vast forest: high forests of various species, heathland plateaus, ponds, sweeping views and, of course, rocky outcrops.
N.B. Due to the winding paths through the rocky sections, the distance and elevation gain are likely underestimated: expect around 30km and between 300 and 400m of elevation gain.
From Bourron-Marlotte to Nemours via Dame Jouanne
A hike from station to station, mainly through forest, crossing the rocky chaos of Maunoury, Dame Jouanne and Éléphant, which are every bit as impressive as those in the neighbouring Fontainebleau Forest. The village of Larchant, with its church and a few old houses, adds a superb touch of heritage.
Around the Étang de la Clarette
A short stroll around this charming lake, home to swans, green-necked ducks and many other migratory birds when the time comes. Photographers, get your cameras ready...
The ponds of Grez-sur-Loing and the banks of the Loing
Take a loop around the Étang de la Clarette, with a short historical walk along the Loing and through the wonderful village of Gretz-sur-Loing. Very pleasant, with unforgettable views along the Loing.
The Rocher des Princes
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.
Route du Rocher des Princes via Les Ventes Bourbon
An easy walk suitable for families, taking around half a day.
From Moret-sur-Loing to Fontainebleau through the forest
Twenty-sixth stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, connecting the Moret-Veneux-les-Sablons and Fontainebleau-Avon stations through the Fontainebleau Forest, bypassing the town of Fontainebleau. During this crossing of the forest, we will walk along wide shaded paths, steep trails through sandstone blocks, and a few interesting viewpoints.
From Moret-sur-Loing to Fontainebleau
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.
The charm of the southern part of the Fontainebleau Forest
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).
