hike for June 19

This week's walk, on Wednesday, 19 June, will be led by Daniel Perot.  He
has provided the following information.

The walk will be in the Forest of Saint Germain en Laye.  It will
start in Saint Germain, admiring the château of François I and walking along
the château terrace with its panoramic view towards Paris. Then we will
zigzag quietly through the forest to our destination at Maisons Lafitte, a
lovely residential town known for its horse racing.

To get to the start of the walk at Saint-Germain-en Laye, take the RER A,
direction Saint-Germain-en-Laye, which leaves Châtelet/Les Halles at 9:34, Etoile/Charles-de-Gaulle at

9:40. and which arrives at Saint-Germain-en-Laye at 10:02. Buy a single ticket as we will return from the station "Maisons Laffitte", on another branch of the RER A.

Saint-Germain en Laye and Maisons Laffitte are in zone 4.

At St-Germain, take the exit "église".  The meeting point is in front of the
church.

The walk will last approximately 3½ hours with an optional visit of Maisons-Lafitte.

Bring your picnic lunch, water and Spring/Summer equipment.
Dicton : Printemps en Juin, l'Eté n'est pas loin.
