メスニエール＝アン＝ブレー周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

A must-see

This magnificent 7,000 ha Pays de Bray forest is one of the largest beech forests in France. In all seasons, it offers magnificent panoramas and colors ideal for walks and all nature activities. Whether on foot, by bike or on horseback, you will appreciate the magnificent beech trees, some of which are remarkable, and will probably have the chance to come across a wild animal (deer, deer, fawn, wild boar, etc.). This forest has the particularity of being crossed by the Allée des Limousins, a rectilinear breakthrough of 14 km.

Away from cars, but a bit monotonous...

I do not know if it is listed as such, in any case it is a beautiful climb that can indeed be assimilated to a small pass, with at the end a panorama of the valley of Bethune. It is apparently a popular place for paragliders in the region. During my visit, I also came across one waiting for a favorable wind.

Magnificent castle dating from the Renaissance whose plans were inspired by the castle of Chaumont s/Loire. Sequestered during the Revolution, the estate was transformed into a prison during the time of the Terror and housed up to 150 prisoners. It was returned to its owner in 1799. The site is now owned by the St Joseph Institute and the outbuildings house a private establishment for general and technical education, with in particular courses dedicated to horticulture and the hotel and catering industry. The castle offers accommodation services and room rentals for events. It is open to individual visits during the July-August period from 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., except on reception days for weddings or other events. The gardens surrounding the castle were designed by Le Nôtre. A sign on the Avenue Verte also specifies that the village of Mesnières, entirely organized around the castle, deserves a little detour. It's true ...

Mesnières-en-Braye, very beautiful castle.

I couldn't visit it but stopped in front of it. A castle to visit I think.

As on the outward journey, the green avenue is pleasant to take through its fields and the old stations and road signs that adorn this route for several tens of kilometres.
