Seugy walks

A circular walk that follows the GR®1 from Viarmes station to Presles on the outward leg. After passing through Noisy-sur-Oise, a village overlooking the Oise Valley, the GR®1 enters the Carnelle Forest, runs alongside Lac Bleu and passes near the covered walkway at La Pierre Turquaise. On the return leg, the route runs alongside the three lakes of the Carnelle Forest. Before arriving at the station, the route offers a chance to discover one of Viarmes’ many wash houses.

Visit Royaumont Abbey via Viarmes and Luzarches, following the GR®655 circular route, for a wonderful day out with the family.

The Carnelle National Forest is a forest located on a hill 25 km north of Paris. Its summit (altitude 210 m) is one of the highest points in the Val d'Oise. The variety of its landscapes makes it one of the most pleasant sites in the region. This hike follows part of the northern flank of the forest, allowing you to discover some interesting features of the forest and its surroundings.

Starting mainly in the forest and then crossing fields on good paths, this hike from station to station has its share of remarkable sights. You can enjoy an old market hall, two beautiful churches, a dovecote, a spring and a menhir, as well as a natural curiosity, the two intertwined trees in the Forest of Coye.

A lovely walk along nature trails, passing by Royaumont Abbey.

All the treasures of the local heritage: wash houses, bell towers, streams, etc.

Circular hike which, on the way there, follows theGR®1from Luzarches to the Étangs de Comelles. This hike allows you to discover the beautiful, undulating Coye Forest with its variety of tree species.

A very varied walk north-east of Luzarches: peaceful valleys, beautiful trees in the Forest of Coye and the remains of the former Abbey of Hérivaux, where B. Constant lived (after largely destroying it...) The walk mainly follows marked paths (PR® at the start, thenGR®1andGR® 655). Very peaceful despite the proximity of Paris.

The hike starts at Royaumont Abbey and takes you through a mainly rural area, dominated by forests and farms, with numerous horse breeding establishments. The hilly landscape offers beautiful views of the Carnelle forest and the Oise valley. Passing through several villages gives you a glimpse of their rich heritage.

Loop starting from Baillon (municipality of Asnières sur Oise), near Royaumont Abbey along the Nouvelle Thève through the Bois de Baillon.

This forest is steeped in history, as Saint Louis and Blanche of Castile used to walk here. It takes its name from the Celtic root "Carn", meaning stone, as some of its covered paths contain the remains of Neolithic tribes who came from the north. The exploitation of gypsum and marl gave rise to two ponds: the Petit Étang and the Lac Bleu.

A beautiful route through the Lys Forest, past beautiful residences and the hamlet of Baillon, to Royaumont Abbey and back via a farm track.

Stroll along the Oise river and take the farm tracks to discover the historic sites of Boran-sur-Oise.

A circular walk starting from the Château de la Reine Blanche and the Étangs de Comelles in the Chantilly Forest, passing through Mongresin (Orry-la-Ville) and the barn of the former Comelle Abbey . The Château de la Reine Blanche and the Étangs de Comelles are among the most remarkable sites in the Chantilly Forest.

La randonnée se déroule d'abord à travers la Forêt de Carnelle, avec un passage à la superbe Allée couverte de la Pierre Turquaise, la plus imposante d'Ile-de-France. On continue en forêt puis à travers champs, pas loin de l'Oise, pour une visite à l'ancienne Abbaye de Royaumont. On termine entre bois, prés, champs et zones résidentielles.

As the title suggests, this hike takes in three covered walkways, two of which are among the most remarkable in the Ile-de-France region. The first part takes place in the Carnelle Forest, with beautiful beech woods and two pleasant lakes. The second part takes place mainly across fields.

Discover the Isle-Adam National Forest and the agricultural landscapes of the Val d'Oise on its southern edge. The route alternates between forest paths and wide, rolling hills amid cultivated fields and meadows.

A hike through the south-western part of the L'Isle-Adam Forest, where you will encounter some remarkable trees and beautiful heritage sites in Montsoult and Maffliers.

From Château de la Borne Blanche to Abbaye d'Hérivaux, between ponds and forest.

One abbey, two castles, two churches, one river, one lake, three rural villages and the Forest of Coye. In 1140 , Ascelin, known as "the Hermit", lord of Marly-la-Ville , left his castle in Marly and retired to this then inhospitable place (locum horroris et vaste solituninis) called Herremivallis, the hermit's valley. He already owned part of the land, and the Counts of Beaumont and Clermont willingly ceded the rest to him. Joined by other companions, they cleared the land located in a wooded depression forming a valley through which several springs flowed, and founded the Abbey of Hérivaux.

Eleventh stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, connecting Chantilly-Gouvieux station to the village of Borest, reached by crossing the Chantilly estate, the Chantilly and Ermenonville forests, with a detour through the historic centre of Senlis and, optionally, a moment of reflection in front of the memorial to the victims of the March 1974 plane crash. The route follows, more or less closely, the Nonette River, which is crossed several times. The route for this stage is almost entirely in the forest, with little elevation gain, making it a very pleasant hike, and the crossings of Chantilly and Senlis add a rich touch of heritage. This stage requires an overnight stay to avoid laborious car manoeuvres. It is therefore the first of two consecutive stages, both entirely within the Oise department, between the Chantilly-Gouvieux and Crépy-en-Valois railway stations.

A hike alternating between countryside, forest and villages. The route passes in front of Hérivaux Castle, the abbey and the remains of an old 13th-century mill (a marker indicates the location of the mill). Cross the village of Bellefontaine with the banks of the Ysieux and the lake.

From Nerville-la-Forêt, take a short hike in the Forêt de l'Isles Adam with visits to three villages and three churches. This hike is popular in summer when it is hot thanks to the cool shade of the trees in this forest, and also in winter as the ground is not too muddy.

A hike for all tastes, passing by Rue des Troglodytes, the ponds and the banks of the Oise.

Most of the hike takes place on flat ground and in woodland, with a long stretch along the edge of lakes. It offers beautiful views of the Picardy countryside and the Oise valley. Passing through Précy-sur-Oise, Blaincourt-lès-Précy, Saint-Leu-d'Esserent and Villers-sous-Saint-Leu, you can discover some of the region's heritage gems.

A very beautiful route from station to station in the Montmorency Forest, based in part on four themed trails: “Le Sentier des Lisières”, “Le Sentier de la Reine Hortense” and “Le Chemin des Philosophes” described on the Saint-Leu-la-Forêt tourist information website, plus “Taverny par les Sentes”. Thanks to a number of information boards, the route allows you to trace the region’s ancient and more recent history, admire many of its most interesting sites, and even engage in a bit of philosophy. It can easily be shortened to 18 km by avoiding the return trip to the Statue of Notre-Dame de France at the start of the walk.

A circular loop from station to station accessible via line H. Starting from the town of Bouffémont, it takes you into the Montmorency Forest and on to the Château de la Chasse and its pond. Before and after the château, the route follows various forest trails in the shade of century-old trees.

Chantilly is the largest racehorse training centre in Europe. The forest is criss-crossed by numerous galloping tracks that are usable all year round thanks to the quality of the sand. During this walk, you can appreciate the importance of this activity in the forest itself and in the plain bordering its northern edge. Beautiful views of the château, the Grandes Écuries and the Canal Saint-Jean add to the charm of the circuit.

This route is mainly through woodland, allowing you to explore the woods and golf courses around Chantilly and offering beautiful views of the Château de Chantilly estate.

Located mainly in the Oise Valley, this hike crosses the Bois de la Coharde forest at the end of the route. It allows you to discover a troglodyte village in Gouvieux and offers beautiful views of the Oise, Chantilly, Saint-Leu-d'Esserent and Saint-Maximin.
