The Fontainebleau Forest

Now enter the forest via the Route Louis Philippe. Continue straight on, all the way to the end of this forest greenway. At the crossroads, continue straight on along the Route Paul forest road. Listen to the beautifully singing chaffinches as you pedal through this peaceful nature reserve. At the end of this road, take the underground tunnel beneath the D607. Upon exiting the tunnel, bear slightly right onto the tarred Route du Bouquet du Roi and continue straight on along this road. At the end of this forest road, cross the secondary road to continue straight on towards the Apremont Gorges. Be careful crossing the D301. Continue straight on along Route de la Gorge aux Néfliers. A little further on, you arrive at the Apremont Gorges. Be sure to admire the lovely view of the forest, just after the rocks on your right. Here, vehicles can access the car park. After this well-deserved break, turn right after the car park onto Route de Sully that winds its way downwards and becomes Route Marie-Thérèse until the restaurant “La Caverne des Brigands” located at the Bas Bréau car park. At the little roundabout at the far end of the car park, turn left onto Allée des Vaches, leading you into Barbizon.
