Bassin des 24 Jets walks

An accessible route in a historic site on the outskirts of the capital. This walk combines heritage, greenery and sweeping views of Paris.

A hike that starts on the banks of the Seine and then crosses the Parc de Saint-Cloud, passing by its main lakes. You then stroll through Marnes-la-Coquette and Ville-d'Avray at the foot of beautiful, large houses. After winding your way between the Étangs de Ville-d'Avray, you walk through the southern part of the Forêt de Fausses-Reposes. The hike ends in a residential neighbourhood of Versailles.

This 18 km circuit, which is of moderate difficulty due to the elevation, starts at the Sèvres - Ville d'Avray train station and takes you on a journey of discovery through the NationalEstate of Saint-Cloud and its green surroundings. You will discover the homes of famous figures, La Cité de la Céramique, the Musée des Avelines, the Haras de Jardy and the bucolic Ferme du Piqueur along the way.

A very short itinerary in a historic site that combines heritage, French gardens and extensive panoramic views of Paris and the Val de Seine.

Although highly urbanised, western Paris offers a considerable density of green spaces and forests, which this series of hikes, from station to station or in a circular route starting from a station, invites you to (re)discover. Several forest areas are on the programme: Saint-Cloud, La Celle, Marly, Versailles, Les Tailles d'Herbelaye and Saint-Germain-en-Laye. There is also a rich heritage to discover, particularly in the parks of Saint-Cloud and Marly, in Marnes-la-Coquette, Chambourcy and Poissy.

Although densely urbanised, the Hauts-de-Seine department offers wonderful opportunities for walkers, with a rich heritage and often a little elevation. This series of hikes, almost all of which are accessible by public transport, takes you on a journey of discovery through this department, avoiding major roads as much as possible and favouring footpaths and alleys, public parks and wooded areas.
