Another excellent local surprise, this pond (artificial, but dating from Vauban) was part of the system of channels and aqueduct which directed the waters from the Saclay plateau to the fountains of Versailles...

Port Royal Singletrack

Highlight • MTB Park

Great spot for mountain bikers looking for thrills!
Tested with a gravel bike, I would have preferred to have had a mountain bike, but with caution I was still able to have fun!

Descent from Port-Royal Abbey

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

One of the most beautiful descents in the park of the Chevreuse valley! the track is well traced... fortunately because the slope is steep and you quickly pick up speed when you know a little about this playful track

La Mérantaise and its washhouse

Highlight • Historical Site

The forest of Port-Royal is distinguished by the pretty landscapes created by the Mérantaise which crosses it. The washhouse set up by the river further embellishes this idyllic setting.

A great course. On the other hand, part of the path on the outward journey is a little too technical (level of the Merantais area). I recommend taking a simpler route
