Shinrin-yoku: Silent Forest Walk (Fontainebleau)

Update 🌿
Due to the rainy weather forecast for Sunday in Fontainebleau, I’ve decided to move the walk to Saturday, May 2nd.

As well as
due to train maintenance during the long holiday, we’ll need to slightly adjust our route.
We’ll meet at Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame, then take a train to Juvisy, transfer to another train to Fontainebleau, and finally take a bus to the forest.

It might take a bit longer than expected — sorry, I just found out about this.

I’ve already reached out to everyone who signed up and I’m currently waiting for your response. Merci !
