Discover the castle of Fonainebleau in a different way and enjoy the new small boats of the Carps Pond!
Meet us at the jetty of the Carps Pond, the boater will be waiting for you next to the small gatehouse.
The dock is located in front of the Château de Fontainebleau, by the Étang aux Carpes. Come enjoy this idyllic setting by treating yourself to a ride in a rowboat—an experience that’s sure to delight young and old alike. Marin D’eau Douce also offers electric rowboats.
Easy to maneuver, these boats allow you to paddle out from the Carpes Pond to admire the grandeur and scale of the Château de Fontainebleau, situated not far from the forest.
From the Marin D’eau Douce boats, you can admire the entire Fontainebleau Castle, as well as the gardens and the pavilion situated right in the center of the pond.
