Elephant Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

The famous elephant in the forest of Fontainebleau...one of the very many rocks with such a particular shape in the area. But this time, no real room for imagination, I think we all see pretty much the same thing!

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here is another superb view of the forest of Fontainebleau, on the Barbizon side. The panorama over the Gâtinais is truly magnificent, with trees as far as the eye can see.
