For first time visitors to Paris we recommend staying there overnight and catching the train from Gare d Lyon to Fontainebleau each morning. It is also recommended that first time visitors to the forest spend their first night in Paris or Fontainebleau town before attempting to sleep out. A bicycle/ horse is recommended for non-forest sleepers for swift reunion with rough sleepers. It is illegal to camp or just sleep overnight in the forest so discretion is a advised. It is illegal and dangerous to cut trees, branches or even dead wood and to make fires in the forest. So good quality camping stove is recommended for warm food. There are no rubbish bins, so bring supplies with minimal wrappings.
