Some of these trees have probably seen the royal hunting parties pass by! This hike is partly like a treasure hunt.

The route is further enhanced by passing close to two 18th-century castles.

Une longue randonnée avec le joli village de Beauvais, des sous-bois comme la forêt des Grands Avaux, les très beaux Rocher du Duc et Roches aux Dames avec leurs points de vue, qui rappellent Fontainebleau, la Tour du Buisson et les 100 marches de l'aqueduc de la Vanne et du Loing à Champcueil.
