Parc Interdépartemental des Sports - La Plaine Sud (Choisy-le-Roi) walks

An urban route starting along Lake Créteil from its southern tip to its northern tip, set amongst lawns and reed beds. You then cross, via footpaths, the ‘Du Chou et des Épis’ neighbourhood, with its cylindrical tower blocks featuring original designs, and the University district. The end of the route takes you to Maisons-Alfort via the Juliottes neighbourhood.

Sometimes referred to as the French capital of street art, Vitry-sur-Seine offers an impressive density and diversity of graphic street art! This urban route from station to station allows you to discover a good number of them, without claiming to be exhaustive. A walk to be done with your eyes wide open and your head turning in all directions!

A short walk that takes us to the point where the two main rivers of the Île-de-France region meet, two kilometres east of Paris. Numerous bridges, a dam and a lock on the Marne, a towpath and industrial heritage form the backdrop to this urban route.

This urban route will allow you to discover a small corner of the suburbs, cross the Bicêtre Hospital and end up at the Seine after passing through Parc Montsouris and the Jardin du Luxembourg, then a few old districts of Paris.

The first part of this hike from station to station is mainly through forest, with a mix of wide paths and winding trails. Then you follow the course of the Yerres, playing leapfrog with the river, its branches and tributaries.

This long hike goes from one RER A station to another. It begins with a climb in Boissy Saint-Léger but the rest is flat. We start with a circular walk through the Gros-Bois Forest, then the main part of the walk takes us through the Notre-Dame Forest. We alternate between wide avenues and footpaths, with a wide variety of trees. The walk ends with a long, gently sloping green corridor and a walk through Morbras Park. Several alternative routes allow you to shorten the route.

The commune of Saint-Maur-des-Fossés lies entirely within a bend in the Marne. This walk, from station to station, follows almost the entire length of this bend. It can be enjoyed in all seasons and showcases the river and its islands, the residential neighbourhoods along its banks and Charles Trénet, who lived here for part of his life.

After a few passages and alleys in Saint-Maur, the lock and the Créteil bridge, you walk along a small branch of the Marne and stroll through the residential Ile Brise Pain. After crossing the Mont-Mesly district of Créteil, with its large, airy housing estates, you arrive at the tip of the lake, which is decorated with several water jets.

A hike from station to station, half urban, notably through the paths and alleys of Sucy-en-Brie, and half forest.

Discover street art on both sides of the Boulevard Périphérique! First, cross Ivry-sur-Seine, where painted or tagged walls alternate with much older heritage. Then, wander through the Rive Gauche district of Paris's 13th arrondissement, currently undergoing renovation, where murals and modern architecture rub shoulders with interesting industrial heritage.
