Saint Pierre de Dreux is splendid. Too bad that an arrow is totally dilapidated. Even in this state, this church retains all its brilliance.

Guiperreux Toad Crossing

Highlight • Natural Monument

At the edge of this road a pond which forms with the forest which surrounds it a protected natural area.
Each year, during the thaw (roughly from February to April), a "toadstool" is installed on the road that runs along the pond.
But what is a toaddrome exactly? So, it is not a place where one could indulge in clandestine bets on toad races, but a device intended to prevent these poor beasts from being crushed by cars in crossing the road to breed and lay their eggs in the pond on the other side of the road.
Indeed, thousands of common toads, but also frogs and newts, begin their long prenuptial migrations around March each year. They go to the nearest pond or pond to breed. Once their duty is done, they leave the aquatic environment to return to their summering areas where they will spend most of their time feeding.
In order to avoid a carnage of amphibians on the road, a tarpaulin is planted 600m on each side of the road to block their passage. In various places a hole has been made in which a bucket is buried. By looking for a passage all along the tarpaulin, the toad will inevitably end up at the bottom of a bucket. Every morning, volunteers come to collect toads and other frogs and drop them off on the other side of the road.

Rambouillet

Highlight • Other

Rambouillet is above all synonymous with forest. And what a forest, with its oaks mixed with pines, populated with wild boars, deer and deer. But Rambouillet is also its 14th century fortified castle where François I died, where Napoleon spent his last night before leaving for Saint Helena, where Charles X took refuge after the insurrection of July 1830.
And then, as regards cyclists, Rambouillet is above all the departure city of Paris-Brest-Paris. It is indeed from the National Sheepfold, in the park of the Rambouillet castle, that the participants of the most legendary of all hikes also set off.

Very beautiful castle of Rambouillet, and very pleasant tour of the basins

Tarred road crossing the park of the Château de Rambouillet to reach Rambouillet and Gazeran. It should be noted that this road had been dotted with quite violent and inconspicuous speed bumps. They have been removed, and the road is now much more passable. Beware, however, of the crowds on sunny days.
