Warluis walks

Hike in the Merlemont Woods, with lots of woods and little road traffic.

Discover two contrasting natural environments: the dry limestone grasslands covering the hill of Mont César and the marshes below. A varied route through the forest, poplar groves and fields.

The Hez-Froidmont forest was created in 1869 by combining the Hez (1,413 ha) and Froidmont (259 ha) state forests with the Saint-Lucien, Saint-Thibault and La Verrière reserves, which were originally owned by the church. Covering a single area of 2,796 hectares (with the exception of the Belle Fille valley, which is 100 metres away from the forest and represents a small 10-hectare canton), it stretches 9 kilometres from east to west and 6 kilometres from north to south.

A lovely walk through pastures, hedgerow paths and forests of many different species, including some beautiful large trees, some of which are certainly centuries old. It is also an opportunity to pass through two beautiful villages with pretty half-timbered houses, often brightly coloured and with flower-filled gardens.

Ansacq is a village located at the beginning of a small, narrow, green valley cutting into the southern edge of the Clermont massif, gradually widening to open out onto Angy, in the Thérain valley, a small, narrow, green valley.

This route starting from Ons-en-Bray will take you through fields and wooded areas. On the way back, you can admire the typical farms of the Pays de Bray.

This is a beautiful walk at the entrance to the Oise, in the valleys between Anserville and Fosseuse. The walk takes you through fields and woods. The region is surprising in this area, with its gently sloping hills and succession of small woods and fields. It offers a variety of very pleasant views.

An easy hike through fields, allowing you to discover the pretty village of Foulangues with its stone houses, small church and the Pavillon du Tillet, a half-timbered house.

Tenth stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR®11, connecting the Cires-lès-Mello railway station to the Chantilly-Gouvieux railway station, around the River Oise and two of its tributaries, the Thérain and the Nonette. The built heritage here is remarkable, between the abbey church of Saint-Leu d'Esserent and, of course, the town and estate of Chantilly.

The ninth stage, entirely in the Oise department, of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France on the GR®11, between the stations of Bornel-Belle-Église in the Esches Valley and Cires-lès-Mello in the Thérain Valley. It consists of a crossing of the Pays de Thelle, from west to east, in the south of the department, and always through magnificent varied landscapes, between woods and fields.

An easy and varied walk between Vexin and Picardy. The paths are very easy to follow and there are very few roads to cross. The walk starts in Cresnes, a small, quiet hamlet.

This is a very pleasant walk through a varied forest, often along the edge between fields and woods. You will discover superb panoramic views of the Vexin region. Crossing Chavençon, a small village lost in the countryside, is a very enjoyable experience.

A very bucolic walk in the heights of the French Vexin, passing close to the highest point in the Ile-de-France region. A beautiful forest to cross until you reach the house that was once inhabited by Sarah Bernhardt. Return through the fields across a beautiful landscape at the edge of Picardy.

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 varied walk through fields and forests. Discover several ponds, many of which are populated by water birds: herons, moorhens, ducks, geese, coots... The two villages you pass through offer some picturesque streets typical of the French Vexin region, as well as two beautiful churches.
