⚠️ Forest road crossing a military firing range ⚠️

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This highlight is part of a beautiful asphalted car-free road through the forest south of Senlis. However, this stretch of road of approximately 1.5 km in length is also part of a military training area / shooting range, so you cannot always cycle here!!!

⚠️ Closed on: Tuesday, Thursday and Friday!! ⚠️

On these days the area is cordoned off with barriers and you will have to cycle a small unpaved area via the west. This diversion is shown on the yellow warning sign on the south side of the site. Inconveniently enough, this sign is not on the north side of the site. See the photo I posted with this highlight.

The path is publicly accessible all other days of the week and is very worthwhile!
Along the way you will encounter a short steep climb from the north, but not too crazy. Highly recommended.

The church is a classic architural masterpiece and it's situated just across a pastry shop that's perfect for a break (and a prize winning baguette)

Château d'Ermenonville

Highlight • Castle

The Château d'Ermenonville is a medieval fortress which was transformed into a castle in the 18th century. The castle is located in the heart of a country-inspired park, from where you can admire the view of the Launette and the Jean-Jacques Rousseau park. You can also enjoy the elegance of the restaurant and lounge, or rent a boat or bicycle to explore the surrounding area.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau Park, Ermenonville

Highlight • Natural

Jean-Jacques Rousseau Park is an old garden that perfectly represents the romantic spirit. Far from geometric shapes, it pays true homage to nature in its purest state. As its name suggests, there is the burial place of Rousseau, whose remains were later transferred to the Pantheon.
