Seine-et-Marne is rolling out a raft of great outing ideas for this weekend of September 12–13, 2026. In our forays around the 77, from Fontainebleau to Meaux and on to Provins and Vaux-le-Vicomte, we’ve spotted enough to fill two days without straying too far from Paris: castles, flea markets, festivals and nature walks.
From charming villages to grand estates and museums, the department never misses an opportunity to get out and explore. To plan your getaway, our guide on what to do in Seine-et-Marne highlights the best spots to discover all year round.
Before you head out, one reflex is essential: several lines of RER, Transilien and the metro remain affected by works, as detailed in our piece on the transport disruptions from September 7 to 13, 2026. On the weather front, Météo-France is forecasting a noticeable cool-down across Île-de-France this week, with the return of showers. It’s wise to slip a windbreaker into your bag and keep a few sheltered options (museums, castles) handy in case of a shower.
