Country:
District:
Park in the car park of the Commanderie des Templiers de la Villedieu, located at the Ordre des Chevaliers roundabout (with the statue of a knight).
(S/E) Take the path at the back of the car park to reach the large park behind the Commandery, known as the "Coulée Verte de la Villedieu", with its vast meadow and tree-lined paths. Walk around the park, keeping to the right, and then exit on the north side to arrive at the Templiers roundabout.
(1) Go around the roundabout on the left and take Avenue de la Villedieu on your right. You will pass a large playground, after which you take the small street on the left, Allée Golda Meir, with a nursery at the end.
To the right of the nursery, a path leads you directly to the edge of the Bassin de la Boissière, a small corner of paradise, quiet and green! Walk around the lake, following the path on the right-hand side of the south side of the basin (which becomes narrower towards the east side). With a bit of luck, you may even spot a heron!
On the other side of the basin, take the path near the water.
(2) After walking around the lake, continue straight ahead on the footpath, then cross Route du Mesnil and continue along the footpath. Then turn right to walk around the small park, ending up at the corner of Rue Albert Einstein after completing the circular route.
(3) Take this road south towards the Grafenhainichen roundabout (a German town twinned with Élancourt). Go around the roundabout on the right and continue straight ahead on Avenue de la Petite Villedieu (southbound). You will arrive back at the Commanderie des Templiers park.
(4) Turn left into the park. Turn right twice, then left to find the car park (S/E).
