superb single with practically only descent. Watch out for the sand! Piloting is necessary at times. Stimulus is needed to regain speed.

Highlight • Castle

A pleasant break, around the Château de la Chasse and its pond, in the heart of the Montmorency forest

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!

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.
