    Very pretty path lined with giant sequoias.

    A little history: the Mennecy sequoia avenue was planted in Villeroy park in 1887 at the request of the Darblay family, owner of the place. It is the second longest avenue in Europe: it is 800 meters long and has 134 trees aged around 140 years and reaching over 30 meters in height, with an average circumference of around 4 meters.

    Superb alley of giant sequoias planted in 1887. It is the 2nd longest alley of sequoias in Europe. With magnificent specimens over 4 m in diameter. Even if some wither due to parasites and lack of water.
