Neufmoutiers-en-Brie walks

Three small villages are marked on the map at each point of a right-angled triangle. This is an easy walk with no particular difficulties. There are no climbs, so no effort is required, and the flat countryside is full of charming little spots to discover.

A beautiful circular route between two villages in the Brie region in the Forest of Crécy

For centuries, the landscape of Villeneuve-le-Comte has been shaped by agricultural landscapes in a forest environment. Within a 2 km radius of the village centre, hiking trails allow us to discover the diversity and richness of these landscapes, which have been preserved to this day. This route is obviously intended for the inhabitants of the commune, who can complete the circular route in 3 hours, but there are also variants that shorten the route.

A hike from station to station that starts at the edge of the forest. You then cross a cultivated plateau before descending into the Grand Morin valley. The route ends between the river and canals.

A hike from station to station, through woods and fields, criss-crossing the Marsange river. The route passes through several villages in the Brie region with a rich heritage.

This circular allows you to enjoy the beautiful forests, mainly oak, of the Crécy Forest. Three-quarters of the route is in the woods, while the rest takes you through two charming villages, each with a remarkable castle and an elegant church. A few other points of interest are indicated, including the memorial to the poet Étienne Jodelle (1532-1573), a contemporary of the much better-known Pierre Ronsard. The forest was very lively when I visited (at the end of December): despite a large wild boar hunt in progress, I saw three deer (in three different places) and a fox. The GPX track can be very useful in the forest, given the various changes in direction.

A hike from station to station that takes us from the Morin rivers area to the Brie plateau. After a long stretch through the Crécy Forest, the route alternates between fields and woods, with beautiful heritage sites in Les Égrefins and in the centre of Tournan.

A walk from station to station that starts on the edge of the forest. You then follow a maze of paths through the village of Tigeaux. The route continues across a cultivated plateau and then along the Grand Morin. The town of Crécy-la-Chapelle brings this walk to a close on a superb heritage note, highlighted by the Gothic-style collegiate church.

A country walk in the Grand Morin valley, with the mills of Coude and Prémol. Note: actual elevation gain: approximately double the calculation, i.e. 260 m. Avoid in wet weather. Caution! The route has been modified at the Moulin de Prémol due to the removal of the footbridge over the railway line.

A varied walk through fields, woods and the old town, where many eras coexist.

Hike from Liverdy-en-Brie via Retal, Courquetaine and La Marsange, alternating between wooded areas, farmland and urban passages, with two churches, two castles, a farm and a wash house.

A walk along the Marsange, which takes us under and over the TGV line, as well as through a level crossing on the Trancilien line. Along the way, old agricultural tools are on display.

Randonnée sympathique dans le Pays Créçois, à partir de Voulangis, en passant par trois villages, le long du Grand Morin et en croisant le Ru de la Biche, avec quelques parties boisées et des terrains agricoles traversés.

Between Villiers and Crécy, you walk along the hillsides through fields, meadows and small woods. Crécy-la-Chapelle offers views of its canal, beautiful old houses, the Church of Saint-Georges and the Moulin Saint-Martin, as well as a very pleasant walk along the Grand Morin.

Loop starting from the pretty village of Crécy-la-Chapelle. Varied landscapes: fields, forests, villages and river, Grand Morin valley. Picnic in the village of Dammartin-sur-Tigeaux and return along the river.

An original route from south to north, more rural than wooded, passing through interesting villages. The zigzag route makes it easy to shorten for those intimidated by the distance: we recommend cutting from point to point, which allows you to visit all the villages along the route, reducing the distance to less than 20 km. Only the aqueduct section would then be left out.The start and finish are accessible by bus from the Chessy-Marne-la-Vallée RER-TGV station, or by train.

A walk from station to station linking the Grand Morin valley with the Marne valley. The route, which involves some elevation gain, often runs through fields. It follows the embankment of the Dhuys underground aqueduct for approximately 6 km, in two sections.

This is an alternative to the walk “From Crécy-la-Chapelle station to Meaux station via Bouleurs and Boutigny”, which runs further east and allows you to visit the interesting village of Saint-Fiacre (church, wash house, picnic spot and restaurant), and to cross several fields of nearby oil wells. The first third mainly crosses cultivated areas, where the undulating plateau allows the eye to see quite far. You also pass through the villages of Sancy and Vaucourtois, with their respective churches and castles. The second part is much more varied, taking you along a section of the Dhuys Aqueduct, past the Meaux-Boutigny golf course, through the woods at the foot of Bois le Comte, and along the Marne before finishing with a quick (or longer, depending on your mood) visit to the old town centre of Meaux.

A countryside walk that takes you from the Marsange valley to the Yerres valley, taking in the Retal manor house, Ozouer le Voulgis and Courquetaine Castle. Not to be undertaken in wet weather.

Discover the Vallée de la Gondoire by following the Ru de la Gondoire stream, passing through the towns of Chanteloup-en-Brie, Guermantes and Conches-sur-Gondoire. Discover the Halle des Rencontres, the Notre-Dame Church in Conches and the Parc des Cèdres.

A short family walk in the Gondoire Valley and Chigny Woods between Chanteloup-en-Brie and Conche-sur-Gondoire. Four kilometres from Lagny-sur-Marne, the village of Chanteloup-en-Brie is bordered by the Ru de la Gondoire and the Bois de Chigny. Its inhabitants have preserved its agricultural past through its market hall and the Ferme du Pavillon. Discover its history and heritage at Le Chant du Loup.

This walk offers views of the Yerres, a priory, two wash houses and cows, alternating between woods and fields.
