August 6 hike

Next Wednesday, August 6, Michel Browne will lead our first August hike in what we hope will be lovely summer weather. Here is Michel's information:

Wednesday’s 18 km walk will take us from Lagny-sur-Marne to Esbly on river or canal banks (with no cars).

 

From the Lagny-Thorigny station, we’ll cross the river Marne and walk east along its left bank to reach the pretty lock of Chalifert.  Then, after a short climb to go over the hill we’ll follow the Chalifert to Meaux canal until we reach the Grand morin river.  After lunch we’ll continue on the same canal to an island between the canal and the Marne to get to Esbly and its station.

 

Meeting place: Lagny/Thorigny station, third stop on the P line from Paris-Gare de l’est to Meaux.  Take the 9h30 train from gare de l’est in Paris that arrives 25 minutes later.  I’ll meet you there around 10.  Return is on the same line from the Esbly station, trains every half hour to Paris.
