Nestled in the heart of the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse in the Regional Nature Park, Janvry in Essonne is an undiscovered nugget. With its farmland and heritage, including the Louis XIII-style château and the church of Notre Dame du Mont Carmel, this village of 600 inhabitants knows how to surprise its visitors. In fact, to everyone's surprise, it offers a free animal park and great events all year round.
In summer, Janvry isn't just a typical Hurepoix village in Essonne, it's transformed into an exotic destination thanks to "Janvry Plage". For 25 years now, long before the advent of the "Paris plage" concept, Janvry has been transforming part of its area into a veritable summer paradise, an oasis of happiness in the middle of the countryside, complete with beach and swimming facilities.
