갈루이스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 호수

Great outing 👍

This former retention basin was part of the network that was used to supply water to the Palace of Versailles. Today, it is a beautiful bird sanctuary where it is pleasant to walk.

Grand Étang du Bois de la Kabiline Feed by the Mauldre, a small river of 35 km which has its source between Saint-Rémy-l’Honoré and Coignières before flowing into the Seine. The pretty valley of the Mauldre nestled between the plateaus of the plain of Versailles and the Mantois offers beautiful walks.

Napoleon's bridge crossing the ponds of the Cheuvreuse valley. Very nice place to get some air in the Paris region

Located at an altitude of 154 meters1, the pond covers an area of 0.8 hectares. The “Ponts-Quentin stream” flows into the Rompu pond — coming from the Holland ponds located about 1 km upstream to the east — and comes out to flow, about ten kilometers further to the west, in the Vesgre, having previously changed its name twice: first under the name of “Etang-Neuf stream” then under that of “Grapelin”. The Ponts-Quentin stream passes under departmental road 138 before flowing into the pond, which justifies the undulation of the road and its bend. The pond is part of the Rambouillet national forest, a private state domain. As such, its management is ensured by the National Forestry Office (ONF). Wikipedia

Developed during the reign of Louis XIV, this set of ponds and hydraulic structures was set up under the supervision of the “engineer, architect and hydraulics engineer”: Vauban himself. The 6 ponds, perched at an altitude of 174 meters, had the primary purpose of draining water in order to supply water to the basins of the Domaine de Versailles.

very nice place, calm and relaxing
