The green spaces of Sucy-en-Brie from Boissy-St-Léger station
A surprisingly green walk, mostly passing through a succession of forests, numerous parks and other green corridors. It also takes you through the history of the centuries preceding our own, thanks to the architectural legacy they left behind, some of whose monuments have fortunately been well preserved, such as the Château de Sucy or the Château de Haute Maison, whilst others reveal only their outbuildings, such as the Château du Piple, or have left nothing but ruins, such as the Château du Grand Val.
Arc Boisé in eastern Paris
This long hike goes from one RER A station to another. It begins with a climb in Boissy Saint-Léger but the rest is flat. We start with a circular walk through the Gros-Bois Forest, then the main part of the walk takes us through the Notre-Dame Forest. We alternate between wide avenues and footpaths, with a wide variety of trees. The walk ends with a long, gently sloping green corridor and a walk through Morbras Park. Several alternative routes allow you to shorten the route.

The walk continues with the ascent of Mont-Griffon, the highest point in the area, before returning.
