Vaujours walks

This hike from Vaujours to the Moulin de Montfermeil, via the Promenade de la Dhuis and the Forêt de Bondy, often follows marked paths known as the Chemins de Cosette, in reference to Victor Hugo's novel Les Misérables, in which these places served as the setting for the meeting of the two main characters: Cosette and Jean Valjean. Beyond this literary reference, the route, often along the upper reaches of the rolling hills, offers some very pretty views.

This hike, starting from Vaujours, allows you to enjoy the attractions of the Bondy Regional Forest as well as beautiful landscapes over the Plaine de France to the north and the Marne valley to the south.

Short circuit around Claye-Souilly and its shopping area, in the Bois de Claye and the Claye-Souilly Regional Forest. You can reach the Ourcq Canal, the Dhuys Aqueduct, the Papillon de la Prée Communal Park and its educational farm.

Hike through vast cultivated land with scenery that changes colour with the seasons. The route, which is mainly open, offers beautiful views of the region, particularly of the Butte de Montgé to the north, thanks to the wide undulations of the terrain.

A three-hour circular in the commune of Neuilly-Plaisance, starting from the RER station and ending at the Plateau d'Avron and its park, via the green corridor. The return journey is more urban, through quiet streets, with a detour along the banks of the Marne.

Val Maubuée is one of the areas of the new town of Marne-la-Vallée. This walk takes you through the different areas that make up the town: apartment blocks, housing estates, parks and gardens, woods and forests, wetlands and ponds. There are beautiful views to enjoy along the way.

This route makes us forget that we are in one of the most densely populated and urban departments in France! Most of the route is on footpaths, shared in places with cyclists, along the Marne and in the Parc de la Haute-Ile, which promotes the preservation of biodiversity.

This part of the Marne Valley is home to the Vaires-sur-Marne Regional Leisure Centre and the Parc de la Haute-Ile in Neuilly-sur-Marne. Its appeal lies in the variety of landscapes dominated by the presence of water. The proposed route can be broken down into three hikes of different lengths (8km, 13km or 22km) depending on the time you have available. Even the shortest hike allows you to discover interesting sites.

This hike takes you through the rural valley of Ru de Bouillon (in the commune of Pomponne). It continues on the heights of Thorigny-sur-Marne, notably along the Promenade de la Dhuis, and ends with a long stretch on the right bank of the Marne opposite Lagny-sur-Marne.

A hike in three very different parts. From Noisiel station to Yvris station, the route is mainly wooded and damp in places. Then you cross Le Plessis-Trévise, avoiding the main roads but remaining in a very urbanised area. Finally, you follow the paths and lanes of Champigny before walking along the Marne.

A beautiful walk from station to station (RER line A) along the landscaped banks of the Marne. This walk can be done in either direction.

This hike takes you through the various parks and gardens, woods and ponds of Val Maubuée (Lognes, Torcy, Noisiel and Champs s/Marne), from station to station between Lognes and Noisiel.There are some beautiful views along the way, including ponds, the Menier chocolate factory and Noisiel Park. Please note: check the opening times of Noisiel Park (see "Practical Information" below).Picnics are permitted in the park.

Discover the Domaine de Rentilly with its three distinct landscaped areas: the English-style park, the French-style perspective and the forest, then continue your hike through the agricultural lands of the Vallon de Bussy-Saint-Martin, passing by the Broce and Loy ponds.

Discover some of the towns in the Val de Bussy (Ville Nouvelle de Marne-la-Vallée): Bussy-Saint-Martin with the Rentilly Cultural Park, Bussy-Saint-Georges with its footpaths and alleys reserved for pedestrians, Guermantes and its castle, Conches-sur-Gondoire and Gouvernes. The varied route alternates between countryside and urban areas where pedestrians have plenty of space.

A short walk through the streets, alleys and paths of Fontenay-sous-Bois. Located on the site of former gypsum quarries, the Ecoparc offers a calm and exotic atmosphere as well as a beautiful panorama. The Parc de l'Hôtel de Ville, with its water features and a few paths lined with beautiful pavilions, completes the picture.
