From the Port de Javel, the banks of the Seine are not particularly suitable for a stroll... We therefore leave the river to cross three large parks: André Citroën, Suzanne Lenglen and Île Saint-Germain. We then rejoin the towpath and its many moored barges. The walk ends with a brief detour into Saint-Cloud Park before taking the bridge of the same name to cross the Seine.
