Explore Silly-Tillard through its trails and landmarks: on the “De Ponchon à Tillard” circular trail, a small bridge crosses the Ru du Sillet to the Chapelle Saint-Blaise. The Église Saint-Martin adds another cultural highlight with its clearly articulated architecture. There is also a second hiking route with a historical theme, a 39.8-kilometre cycling route and an immersive investigation game with a tasting. This gives you a choice of activities to suit different time frames and interests when planning your visit.

Hiking: duration, ascent and trail themes

Circular trail 503, “De Ponchon à Tillard”, takes 2 hours and 15 minutes and has an ascent of 75 metres. The trail crosses a small bridge over the Ru du Sillet to the Chapelle Saint-Blaise. The duration and elevation gain are two distinct planning details. Check trail conditions before setting out, as they may change.

Hiking trail 510, “Sur les traces de la seconde guerre mondiale”, is 9.6 kilometres long and takes about 3 hours. It passes through Silly-Tillard and explores the history of the Second World War in Coudray-sur-Thelle. Compared with the 2 hours and 15 minutes given for circular trail 503, this is the longer stated hiking time. The trails also have different themes: “De Ponchon à Tillard” leads to the bridge and chapel, while trail 510 focuses on the history of Coudray-sur-Thelle. When choosing between the two, you can compare their stated durations with your day’s schedule and your interests.

Cycling through Silly-Tillard

Cycling route 192, “Entre Vallée du Thérain et Val du Sillet”, passes through Silly-Tillard and is 39.8 kilometres long. Its heritage focus adds a cycling option with its own thematic emphasis to the two hiking trails. The distance offers a different basis for planning than the durations given for the walks. This lets you compare the options by activity and interest without conflating their different measurements.

Church and chapel

The Église Saint-Martin de Silly-Tillard has a single-nave main body with seven bays and ends in a three-sided polygonal apse. The seven bays divide the elongated interior into sections; the apse forms its three-sided end. The Chapelle Saint-Blaise de Tillard was listed as a historic monument in 1909. It houses a polychrome wooden reliquary bust of a bishop. The two buildings offer different cultural highlights: the church’s architectural layout and the chapel’s historic listing and specific work of art.

Investigation game and regional products

Explore Game Silly-Tillard is an immersive investigation inspired by the true history of Silly-Tillard. It ends with a tasting of products from Salaisons du Val-Sillet. If you plan to include the game in your stay, check in advance whether it is available on your dates; availability may change.

L’Autre Saison in Silly-Tillard makes traditional artisanal preserves from fresh seasonal fruit, without additives, and cooks them in a copper pot. Product availability may also change. The two culinary offerings differ in format: the tasting is part of the Explore Game, while L’Autre Saison focuses on making seasonal preserves.
