Located in the heart of the Montmorency forest, the Château de la Chasse is a real architectural curiosity. It has been reworked several times throughout its history. Two great figures used to walk around it: Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Bernard de Jussieu. Not bad as a company for a botanist walk!

Château de la Chasse and Pond

The Château de la Chasse, located in the heart of the Montmorency forest, is a site steeped in history and mystery. This medieval manor, once a hunting lodge for kings, stands proudly on the edge of a peaceful pond, offering an idyllic setting for a walk in the heart of nature. Surrounded by vast forests and shaded paths, the castle invites contemplation and discovery of the local flora and fauna.

Tour du Plumet

Highlight • Monument

The Tour du Plumet was built in 1863, commissioned by Baron Joseph Louis Léopold Double, a wealthy aristocrat. It was a meeting point for hunting. This tower was part of a larger ensemble which was the baron's home. He collected many pieces of art there. But it is impossible to escape the translatio imperii or "transfer of power". This building is the only survivor of the entire construction.

Saint Radegonde Fountain

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Sainte Radegonde fountain is one of the essential points of the Montmorency forest. It was the object of a pilgrimage because it was said that its water healed the sick. But who is Radegonde? Born in Thuringia around 520, she was forced to marry Clotaire 1er, but later broke away from the secular world to lead a monastic life. The fact is that the fountain is quite pretty and worth a detour, just to spice up your itinerary.

Burial in the forest

Highlight • Monument

Hello backpackers
How can you not love this place? I understand the botanist Bosc who, at the beginning of 1800, had already found the place magnificent, and wanted to be buried there.
I'll let you discover the event-rich history of this man, don't hesitate to take a picnic break there, enjoying the calm of the place, the richness of the biodiversity, even if recently it is no longer too respected, and you will leave peacefully, there are surely good vibes there.
Avoid going there on Sunday….
Nice hike everyone.

Breathtaking view over the treetops of the forest

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here we have a beautiful unobstructed view of the treetops. In the middle of the forest, this type of panorama takes on even more value. It is an ideal place to refuel, hydrate or take a small energy gel before resuming training. If you ever need to take a break to resume better, this belvedere offers the ideal setting.
