Description by the author

This 12.2km walk takes you through the picturesque countryside of the Val -d'Oise in the Île-de-France region, just north of Paris. You'll start in Méry-sur-Oise , a charming village on the Oise River, and finish in Auvers-sur-Oise , a place steeped in artistic history. The region is known for its tranquil riverscapes, historic churches and rich Impressionist heritage.

🚶 Starting point
The route starts at Méry-sur-Oise station , an easily accessible point from Paris, and then leads via country paths and picturesque roads to Auvers-sur-Oise.

🌟 Three highlights you shouldn't miss

  1. Église Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption d'Auvers-sur-Oise
    This church was immortalized by Vincent van Gogh in one of his most famous paintings. It exudes the same drama and beauty as in his work and is a must-see for art lovers.

  2. Auberge Ravoux (Maison de Van Gogh)
    This is the inn where Van Gogh spent his last 70 days. You can visit his small room, and the place still breathes the intensity of his last creative weeks.

  3. The grave of Vincent and Theo van Gogh
    A modest but impressive end point of the route. Vincent and his brother Theo are buried side by side in the cemetery of Auvers – a place of pilgrimage for many Van Gogh enthusiasts.
