Étang de Longchamp walks
From Longchamp to Auteuil, from one racecourse to another
A short hike that starts on a little-known path along the Seine. It then runs alongside the Longchamp racecourse and the Suresnes and Longchamp ponds. After a brief stop at the Grande Cascade, it reaches Lac Supérieur and explores its southern tip. The route ends with a crossing of the Auteuil racecourse, on days when there are no horse races, of course.
Over hill and dale in the Hauts-de-Seine
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.

From the Pont de Neuilly to the Champs-Élysées
A stroll through what are commonly known as the “upmarket neighbourhoods”… Far from the clichés, this urban route offers its share of quiet corners and surprises, such as the Parc de la Folie Saint-James or the short Promenade Péreire. Eighteenth- and nineteenth-century buildings line the route before reaching the much-visited Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile and the Avenue des Champs-Élysées.
