This urban route crosses the 15th arrondissement of Paris from west to east and then from north to south, discovering numerous animal representations. The sculptures in Georges Brassens Park recall the past of the Vaugirard slaughterhouses.

The first section of this women's march of 5 October 1789 follows fairly closely what we know today about the route taken at the time. Starting from the centre of Paris, we follow the course of the Seine and then cross the districts of Auteuil and Billancourt. We cross the Ile Seguin, where the Vieux Pont de Sèvres bridge used to be, and end up in Sèvres, where the 1789 procession made a stop. All along the way, there is a rich heritage to discover.

The other two connect Paris to Versailles, attempting to reproduce the women's march of 5 October 1789.
