Gare de Fontenay-aux-Roses walks
From Malakoff to Massy via the Coulée Verte
The Coulée Verte in southern Paris is a series of green spaces that have been created near or above the Atlantic TGV railway lines. The route, in the inner suburbs, follows this green corridor to its end. An urban walk in green surroundings that can be enjoyed in all seasons, on foot or by bike.
From Fontenay to Clamart via the greenway, parks and woods
An urban route that runs partly through public parks or woods, sheltered from traffic! Each park has its own identity, and the town centres of Châtillon and Clamart add their own touch of heritage.
Between Coulée Verte, urban area and Verrières Forest.
This is a very pleasant cycling route as most of it is on cycle paths. In autumn, the colours are magnificent.The few climbs in the first part are manageable for average cyclists on this route, which is one of the least difficult ways to reach the Verrières Forest by bike. It is also a reasonable length for those who cycle less frequently, but the route through the forest can easily be extended.
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.
Walks near Gare de Fontenay-aux-Roses
From Parc de Sceaux to the Bièvre Valley
This hike crosses Parc de Sceaux and the Verrières National Forest, then continues along the Bièvre, whose valley has been developed with numerous sports and leisure facilities. The presence of so many green spaces is surprising in an otherwise highly urbanised region.
From Parc de Sceaux to Meudon Forest via Parc de la Vallée aux Loups
A varied hike starting from Parc de Sceaux, passing through Parc de la Vallée aux Loups, the house of Chateaubriand, the garden cities of Plessis-Robinson with its allotments and river, which runs at the foot of the buildings. The hike ends with a walk through the forest of Meudon.
Meet the Nobel Prize winners
Greenery and culture abound on this hike from station to station (RER B) between Antony Croix-de-Berny and Sceaux. It passes through a veritable breeding ground for Nobel Prize winners. It takes in splendid parks, including Parc de Sceaux, Arboretum de Chatenay-Malabry, Vallée aux Loups and Parc Henri Sellier. It allows you to discover the places where no fewer than six Nobel Prize winners lived: Marie Curie, physics then chemistry, and Pierre Curie, physics with his wife, Frédéric and Irène Joliot-Curie, together for chemistry, Sully Prudhomme, literature, and Luc Montagnier, medicine.
Montsouris Park and the Petite Ceinture in the 13th arrondissement
A short walk in the south of Paris, partly along the old Petite Ceinture railway line. Before strolling through the wooded park, the Montsouris neighbourhood reveals its quiet houses with varied architecture.
The Meudon Observatory, Les Bruyères and La Femme sans Tête
After following paths through the town, this walk from station to station offers the chance to discover the Meudon Observatory and admire the sweeping views from the terrace of its park. The rest of the route is mainly through forest.
The Petite Ceinture in the 15th arrondissement, Georges Brassens and the Petite Ceinture in the 14th arrondissement
A short walk to relax and get away from it all. First, take the old Petite Ceinture railway line, which runs high above the city. Then stroll through Parc Georges Brassens, which offers a variety of paths and places to stop and rest. Finally, you pass through the 14th arrondissement and follow the Petite Ceinture line to the Porte d'Orléans.
From Sèvres to the Palace of Versailles
The second stage of this women's march on 5 October 1789 takes more liberties with the supposed route of the procession at the time. Starting in Sèvres and ending in Versailles, the route is distinctly urban, but between the two, it is predominantly forest. The Palace of Versailles is the highlight of this hike (with its park if you wish to make an extra detour).
Following the Bièvre in Paris
This third and final section of the Bièvre walks follows the course of the river, which is now underground, through the 13th and 5th arrondissements of Paris. The hike takes you along small streets, through lively neighbourhoods such as the Butte aux Cailles and Rue Mouffetard, and through numerous gardens, including the former Petite Ceinture railway line and the famous Jardin des Plantes.
The towers of the 13th arrondissement and the village of Bercy
An itinerary in the heart of the rapidly changing south-eastern districts of Paris! From the towers and slabs of Ivry to the fountain with lions, via the François Mitterrand Library, the park and the former wine-growing village of Bercy, the route avoids busy roads as much as possible and favours narrow streets and passageways, squares and gardens.
From La Seine Musicale to the French Playing Card Museum
Set off on a pleasant bike ride in the heart of the Hauts-de-Seine, combining contemporary art, greenery and local culture. This approximately 6-kilometre route connects the modernity of the Seine Musicale in Boulogne-Billancourt with the originality of the Playing Card Museum in Issy-les-Moulineaux, passing by the unusual Tour aux Figures on Île Saint-Germain.
