Lac du Réservoir (Bois de Boulogne) walks

An urban route with some elevation changes, crossing wooded parks and residential areas in old Nanterre. Along the way, there are numerous views of Paris and the large housing estates of the Val de Seine, a memorial at Fort du Mont Valérien, an old windmill and an old barn.

An urban route in two stages. First, you stroll through the narrow streets of the Auteuil neighbourhood, which was for a long time a village outside Paris, encountering a variety of architecture. Then, after crossing the Seine on the famous Pont Mirabeau, you zigzag through Parc André Citroën, where plant, mineral and aquatic worlds intermingle.

A tour of Paris following the route of the former Petite Ceinture railway line! A highly varied itinerary, reflecting the diversity of the arrondissements it passes through, which focuses on the converted sections of the old railway line, squares and gardens, and the narrow streets and passageways away from traffic.

This urban walk offers a wide variety of architectural styles spanning the ages: ancient alleyways and a 16th-century church, brick and concrete architecture from the interwar period, and the tall glass-walled towers of the La Défense district.

A route in the city to discover the iconic architectural inventiveness of two successive artistic movements: Art Nouveau, from the late 19th to the early 20th century, and Art Deco, between the two world wars.

An eclectic journey through Paris's 16th arrondissement. After an initially urban start, the route takes you along the Sentier Nature trail, on the embankment of the former Petite Ceinture railway line. The walk ends with a stroll through the Square des Poètes and a visit to the Serres d'Auteuil, which will delight amateur botanists.

For what will no doubt remain a long time to come, the names of Billancourt andÎleSeguin are associated with the Renault factories, which closed their doors in 1992. Boulogne-Billancourt’s industrial and working-class past is not limited to car manufacturing but also encompasses other sectors: laundries (to which we owe the fact that no railway line runs through the town), ice works, aeronautics, telecommunications equipment, cinema and the record industry… This urban walking tour, inspired by the brochure and information panels provided by the town’s Tourist Office, aims to retrace this working-class past. It also offers an opportunity to observe how the urban landscape of a town in the Petite Couronne of Paris has changed radically over the course of a few decades.

The municipality of Boulogne-Billancourt has commissioned an association to cover a wall approximately 200 metres long with murals. The main aim of this short urban walk is to admire these works of art, which may change over time. Before reaching them, you can see a few trompe-l’œil paintings indicating the direction of the city’s museums.

The route mainly follows the Seine towpath, close to the river, and should not be attempted during periods of high water. Many houseboats are permanently moored along the route, which ends at the foot of the impressive towers of La Défense. Do not undertake this trip when the Seine is in flood.

This hike first takes us up the hill of Saint-Cloud, then through the park of the same name with its gardens, flower beds, ponds and Greco-Roman-inspired statues. We then walk through a residential area with beautiful houses. After crossing the Bois de La Celle, we walk through the "village" of La Celle Saint-Cloud to reach Bougival station.
