Wednesday 17 August around Beynes

Countryside near Beynes
 
Dear Hikers,
 
On Wednesday, August 17th, Judy and Cecilia will lead a 15-16 km walk, hilly in places, in the Forêt Domaniale de Beynes and the surrounding countryside. We will walk along the banks of the river Mauldre and through pretty little villages: Saulx-Marchais and Cressay (with its historic "lavoir").

You will need stout walking shoes, a picnic lunch and water. Depending on the weather forecast, don't forget rain gear and/or suncream and a sunhat (part of the walk is through open countryside with no shade).
 
We will take the 9.43 train from the Gare Montparnasse (direction Mantes la Jolie) arriving at Beynes at 10.32. Some of you may find it convenient to join us at Versailles Chantiers at 10.08 or one of the other stations along the way (Saint-Cyr, Plaisir, etc). 
 
Return trains are every hour: 16.04 (probably too early), 17.04 (more likely -- arriving 17.49).

Since Zone 5 has merged with Zone 6, the Mobilis 5 zones now costs only 14€, the same as the return train fare to Beynes.

Mobile phone numbers: 
Judy 06 84 30 91 47
Cecilia 06 45 68 88 05.
 
See you on Wednesday!
