Nandy walks

A hike mostly in the forest, with sections in suburban areas and along ponds.

Starting from Cesson, this route takes you to the banks of the Seine, along the lakes, then through the Bréviande Forest, passing in front of the 12th-century Saint-Germain d'Auxerre Church in Boissise-la-Bertrand. After reaching the Vives Eaux dam, return to the starting point, passing by the ruins of the fortified farm of Les Joies and discovering the Menhir du Grand Berger in the middle of the woods.

This hike will allow you to discover the southern part of the Rougeau Forest, which is much more rugged than the northern part. You will enjoy beautiful views of the Seine valley. You will be surprised by the bucolic Royal Pavilion estate and the Forest Guardian.

A varied walk through woods that will then take you along ponds and the banks of the Seine.

Visit a village in the Gâtinais Français Regional Nature Park and its surroundings: vernacular heritage, wash houses, the École river,

A lovely walk among ponds, marshes and, above all, birds, ducks, etc., lasting 4½ to 5 hours, or longer if you stop to watch the birds on the ponds.

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.

This hike alternates between forest, the Parc de l'Abbaye du Lys and the animal park at Château Soubiran in Dammarie.

A short but challenging hike in a small departmental forest with a diversity of landscapes worthy of its larger neighbour, Fontainebleau: varied undergrowth, rocky outcrops and climbing boulders, old sandstone quarries, flat rock formations, viewpoints, etc.

This hike will allow you to discover a wide variety of landscapes on a relatively short route, as well as some historical remains along the way.

A mainly forest hike during which, in an atmosphere reminiscent of the nearby Fontainebleau Forest, you pass two small peaks (the mounds) and wander through the chaos of sandstone blocks of the Rocher du Duc.

A walk where you can see horses and cross the Yerres eight times.

A forest route that alternates between wide paths under tall trees and winding trails in the undergrowth that require a good sense of direction. At the end of the route, a beautiful isolated pond is a great place to stop.

This hike mostly takes place along the Yerres, a tributary of the Seine, and also includes a section in the Forest of Senart and an urban section. There you can enjoy the charm of this river and the beautiful houses around it, admire two ancient watermills and come cross no fewer than four standing stones along the way.

A hike from station to station in a semi-urban environment, following paths through gardens and pleasant riverside trails.

From Bois-le-Roi to Fontainebleau, walk between forest and rocks far from the beaten track

The Fontainebleau Forest is one of the most beautiful forests in France thanks to its varied landscapes and, above all, its sandstone blocks. This hike, which passes through the Cuvier-Châtillon rocks, the Apremont gorges and the rocks of Mont Ussy, will allow you to appreciate all its beauty but also its fragility, due to both natural erosion and that caused by heavy human traffic, given its proximity to the Paris region.

This hike alternates between the rocks of Fontainebleau, the undergrowth, the banks of the Seine with the "Affolantes" of Bois-le-Roi (the beautiful villas), and a return via the Mare aux Évées. Please note: the Rocher Canon becomes very crowded at weekends when the weather is good.

Loop in the north of the Fontainebleau Forest, between Rocher Canon, Camp de Chailly, Cuvier-Rempart, Mare à Piat, and Rocher Saint-Germain. Interesting rocks, remarkable trees, varied views.

Route along the Seine from Chartrettes to Samois-sur-Seine, followed by a walk through part of the Forest of Fontainebleau. A visit to the cemetery in Samois allows you to see the grave of Django Reinhardt.

Barbizon, the city of painters. There are numerous frescoes on the walls of the Grande Rue, depicting the paintings of our great artists. And there is a natural rock sculpture representing "the Elephant".

This circuit offers a large loop that connects Barbizon to the Rocher de Milly, passing through Isatis and the Rochers des Sablons (very beautiful sandstone quarries). It then joins the Hurlevent viewpoint, crosses the beautiful and wild Touche aux Mulets plateau, then, after crossing the Rocher de Milly again, reaches Franchard, the Gorges d'Apremont and the André Billy viewpoint. Many "wild" and unfrequented sections.

A very varied walk, from the heights of Cuvier Chatillon (beautiful view of the Camp de Chailly) to the banks of the Seine at Bois-le-Roi, and back. Several magnificent trees, including a Japanese Cryptomeria on the road to the Table du Grand Maître and some large oaks below the Point de Vue du Camp de Chailly. Magnificent passage through the Rochers de Cuvier Châtillon (north side).

The most beautiful and rocky part of the Denecourt-Colinet trail No. 5 is completed by a loop around the massif with views of Camp de Chailly and Rocher Canon. Please note: the automatic calculation underestimates the twists and turns in the rocky sections of the Denecourt-Colinet trails. Allow for 19 km and 400 m of elevation gain.

This circuit connects the Gorges d'Apremont and the Gorges de Franchard, passing by the beautiful viewpoint of Camp d'Arbonne and offering a little-known view of the Désert d'Apremont. It uses some sections of the Denecourt-Colinet trails, runs along some peaceful paths with poetic names and passes by the beautiful Mare aux Sangliers.

This walk starts in Crosne, goes through the Grange Forest and then through the town of Yerres before reaching Park Caillebotte where the painter lived. The walk goes along the Yerres River and finishes by going alongside the communal gardens in Villeneuve-Saint-Georges.

An original way to get to the Château de Courances: on foot! This short hike goes around the outside of the park, with the first half rich in heritage (churches, mill, wash house, etc.) and the second half more bucolic, ending on an educational trail dedicated to fruit trees.

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