Bike trips

If you come on your own or with a very small group
Background: Fontainebleau château, where we go via the forest...

 

Our guide is an American writer. Among his subjects – little-known sites around Paris.

 

 

He creates bike-trips around these centers of interest.

 

 

  • Biking along canals

 

Built in the 19th century for barge traffic and once extremely active, the canals Saint-Martin and de l'Ourcq are now serene.   

 

A two-hour bike ride takes us through a forest that is ideal for the picnic our guide brings.

 

We return by express train (RER). 

  • Stone villages

 

We take the train at Gare Saint-Lazare northwest to Pontoise to cycle along the small departmental routes. We cross the Vexin national park, which is hilly – but the beautiful stone villages justify frequent stops.
