Moulin de Boissy walks

A hike from station to station that follows the Grand Morin valley. A route that alternates between short urban passages, paths through the woods, meadows, gardens and cultivated fields. The hike ends on a very pleasant note along the river.

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.

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.

A hike from station to station that alternates between paths through fields and wooded areas. The Sainte-Aubierge Chapel is a peaceful place to stop for a break.

The twentieth stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, the second of three stages through Brie between Coulommiers and Provins, with two nights' accommodation in each place to make the most of the region. The stage is long but not difficult, with very little elevation gain.The stage is designed to follow directly on from the one coming from Coulommiers and precede directly the one going to Provins. But of course, there is nothing to stop you from dividing the route differently.

A short hike from station to station that starts along the Grand Morin and then climbs the hillsides on its right bank. The river reappears at La Celle-sur-Morin with its old mills and charming church. The hike ends on the left bank, mainly between fields.

A hike from station to station between the Grand Morin valley and its hillsides, with a varied route through woods, fields, meadows and old orchards. It is also an opportunity to admire two of the old mills that were once scattered along the river.

A multifaceted hike from station to station. First, you walk up the charming Aubetin River with its waterfall. Then you cross the Malvoisine Forest, alternating between wide paths and trails that wind through the undergrowth. You continue between fields, with a few long paved sections and paths. You finish between narrow streets and paths in Mortcerf.

Within the Ile-de-France region, the Petit Morin valley is a preserved area with a strong rural and agricultural character. This is not a multi-stage hike per se, but rather a collection of seven routes lasting between 3 and 4 hours, covering the small roads of this charming valley and communal paths where motorised vehicles such as quads and 4x4s are prohibited.

Our Île-de-France itinerary continues along a verdant route, offering magnificent views along the Marne valley, set against a backdrop of historical and religious heritage.Saint-Colomban, on his journey into exile, favoured the more welcoming valleys; he followed the Marne then headed towards Metz via Reims; he continued his evangelisation through the Meuse valley, from the Rhine to Lake Constance, before setting off again for Italy, crossing the Alpine passes to stop at Bobbio.
