Wednesday 5 January in Carnelle Forest

The Pierre Turquaise in the forêt de Carnelle
HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Here's wishing you a year of good health and
invigorating hikes. We'll start off the year in the Foret de Carnelle with
Daniel Perot. Here is his information.

This week we will walk in the Forêt de Carnelle.

We'll take the train POMA from the gare du Nord (surface) at 9:36, arriving at Presles-Courcelles (zone 5) at 10:16. (Direction Persan-Beaumont, via Montsoult-Maffliers). We will meet at the end of the quay and board the last car (i.e. the one closest to our meeting point).

Return from Gare de Viarmes (also zone 5) on another line. Get a single ticket.
 15:13 / Paris 15:57.
 15:58 / Paris 16:42.
 16:57 / Paris 17:41.

The walk will cover from 14 to 16 kilometers depending on hikers and weather. On the menu: la Pierre Turquaise (megalith), la Route Forestière du Bois Belle-Fille leading to l'Etang Bleu where we will have our picnic. Be prepared for a couple of hills and cold weather: cold is excellent for mud, it's frozen, but not for toes and noses. So bundle up! "La forêt de Carnelle se mérite!"

Looking forward to seeing you and wishing you a HAPPY NEW YEAR
