Villeneuve-le-Comte walks

A beautiful circular route between two villages in the Brie region in the Forest of Crécy

For centuries, the landscape of Villeneuve-le-Comte has been shaped by agricultural landscapes in a forest environment. Within a 2 km radius of the village centre, hiking trails allow us to discover the diversity and richness of these landscapes, which have been preserved to this day. This route is obviously intended for the inhabitants of the commune, who can complete the circular route in 3 hours, but there are also variants that shorten the route.

A hike from station to station that starts at the edge of the forest. You then cross a cultivated plateau before descending into the Grand Morin valley. The route ends between the river and canals.

Between Villiers and Crécy, you walk along the hillsides through fields, meadows and small woods. Crécy-la-Chapelle offers views of its canal, beautiful old houses, the Church of Saint-Georges and the Moulin Saint-Martin, as well as a very pleasant walk along the Grand Morin.

A country walk in the Grand Morin valley, with the mills of Coude and Prémol. Note: actual elevation gain: approximately double the calculation, i.e. 260 m. Avoid in wet weather. Caution!

An original route from south to north, more rural than wooded, passing through interesting villages. The zigzag route makes it easy to shorten for those intimidated by the distance: we recommend cutting from point to point, which allows you to visit all the villages along the route, reducing the distance to less than 20 km. Only the aqueduct section would then be left out.The start and finish are accessible by bus from the Chessy-Marne-la-Vallée RER-TGV station, or by train.

A hike through the vast open areas of the Briarde countryside with large rolling hills and views as far as the eye can see, followed by shaded areas in the valley and on the Grand Morin hillsides. Pieces of the architectural heritage along the way, churches, mills and wash-houses, make the trip that more worthwhile. The hike can be shortened to a 15 km walk, or split into two, one 8 km and the other 12 km (see useful information).
