A river, an aqueduct and a few parks between Arcueil and Fontenay
Starting from Arcueil-Cachan station, you cross two parks and a bamboo grove, and walk along the Bièvre river and then the Loing and Lunain aqueduct. The route then crosses Bagneux and Parc François Mitterrand to return to Fontenay-aux-Roses station, the start and end of this long circular route through the inner suburbs of Paris.
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.
