This hike starts from the car park in front of the school in Tigery, Rue du Lac.
(S/E) Head east until you reach the intersection with a cement path (Allée des Ombrages). Follow this path south and, at a small roundabout, turn left. Continue straight ahead and, at a T-junction, turn right and ignore a path on the right.
(1) Cross the street and then Place Liedekerke Beaufort via a small path diagonally to the left under the plane trees. At the end of the square, cross the street to the left (be careful, there is no pedestrian crossing), turn right and immediately enter a courtyard on the left, between two columns. Walk along the building on the right and exit through the door at the end to cross Route de Lieusaint at the pedestrian crossing.
(2) Opposite, take Rue du Capitaine Roland Deplanque, which crosses the new village. Cross Rue de la Distillerie and walk past a bakery. Take the next street on the left, Rue du Commandant Maurice Lissac. At the next junction, turn right onto Route de Lieusaint (please note, there is no pavement).
(3) After about 150 metres, take thesecond pathon the left (east-north-east). The path bends to the right and joins Allée Royale: follow this path to the left. Enter the forest and turn right at the first intersection.
(4) At the next crossroads, turn right onto Route d'Ormoy. Continue in this direction until you reach the N104 (Francilienne).
(5) The path splits in two: follow the branch that goes straight ahead (ignore the one that turns right) and pass under a road bridge. Walk along a stream on your right and pass under a second road bridge to reach a housing estate. Take the street on the left (parallel to the N104).
(6) Cross Allée des Myosotis on the right-hand side and continue along the street to the end. Turn right onto a wide avenue (former RN6) and follow it, either on the right-hand side or on the parallel cycle path on the left-hand side (option marked on the map). You will come to a roundabout.
(7) Continue straight ahead for about 250 metres.
(8) Ignore a turn-off on the left (this will be the return route), cross a stream and continue straight ahead until you reach the sign for "Espace naturel du Ru des Hauldres". Then turn left onto a path that runs alongside a lake (not very visible through the trees). Then follow the Ru des Hauldres. Cross Boulevard de l'Europe at the pedestrian crossing and continue opposite along the Étang des Roselières (ignore the paths leading off to the right and left).
(9) When you reach a road (do not cross it), turn left around the lake. At the next footbridge, turn right (without crossing it). Follow the path along the bank and cross the reed bed on the wooden pontoon. Continue along the lake to Boulevard de l'Europe.
(10) Turn right to cross at the pedestrian crossing 100 metres away. Take the path heading due west. Walk along the Étang de la Flâche pond and then the stream until you reach the old N6 road.
(8) Turn right and return to the roundabout.
(7) Cross the old N6 road at the pedestrian crossing and take Allée des Acacias. Cross Allée des Roses, then turn right into Allée des Myosotis.
(6) At the end of this road, turn left and take the same route back under the two bridges beneath the N104.
(5) At the crossroads, continue straight on along Route Forestière d'Ormoy, which soon turns right.
(4) At the junction you took on the way there, continue straight ahead, as well as at the next junction. At the next junction (Carrefour de Tigery), turn left and follow the lane straight ahead down to the Ru des Hauldres.
(11) Just before the footbridge, turn right onto a path that runs alongside it. Follow this path to the Route de Sénart (ignoring the paths that branch off to the right). Cross at the pedestrian crossing and follow the lane opposite that runs parallel to the stream.
(12) Cross the stream via a footbridge and go around the lake on the right (note the apiary on the right). At the end of the lake, turn right (south) onto the path that leads back up to the village. This will take you back to the Rue du Lac car park:
