Porte d'Italie walks

The 13th arrondissement of Paris is renowned for its abundance of murals and the sheer size of some of these works, which cover walls up to 60 metres high. This urban trail takes you on a tour of no fewer than 40 of them, including some of the most spectacular. For fans of street art!

A journey through the 13th and 14th arrondissements of Paris, through lively neighbourhoods with diverse architecture. Numerous "villas" lined with old workshops and pretty townhouses, the remains of two aqueducts, including a Gallo-Roman one, heritage from the first half of the 20th century and a few street murals await you.

Le Quartier Latin is a labyrinth of streets, each as important as the next, as there is a strong history behind. The Sainte-Geneviève Mountain is home to several prestigious schools, and the presence of numerous students adds to the atmosphere of this magnificent suburb.

First stage of the Grand Tour of Île-de-France via the GR® 11, starting from the former confluence of the Bièvre and the Seine at the Pont d'Austerlitz in Paris, to the Massy-Palaiseau station in Essonne. It consists of climbing up the lower part of the Bièvre valley, where the river flows mainly underground but is sometimes exposed to the open air following rehabilitation programmes.

A very pretty urban route in the 12th and 20th arrondissements of Paris. You take the old Petite Ceinture railway line and then wander through passages and numerous flower-filled cul-de-sacs, particularly around Rue des Vignoles. The modern and austere Saint-Esprit church and the oldest and most charming church in Charonne provide two superb and contrasting touches of heritage.

This route on the right bank of the Seine takes us on a journey from medieval times to Art Nouveau. First, we discover the most important remains of Philippe Auguste's city walls and former mansions. We then wind our way through the Sentier district to explore several of its covered passages. This walk is best done during the week, as the covered passages are closed on certain days.

The René Dumont greenway is built on the platform of the former railway line that ran from the Gare de la Bastille. After briefly following the Canal Saint-Martin before it flows into the Seine, you follow this green space through the city, first at a height and then at ground level or through short tunnels. The Jardin de Reuilly, Square Charles Péguy and the Friche Ferroviaire at the junction of the former Petite Ceinture line add to the charm of this route.

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!

The South Paris Green Corridor is a series of green spaces that have been developed near or above the Atlantic TGV railway lines. This short walk, limited to central Paris, follows the green corridor at its beginning, while taking a few liberties to stroll through secret corners of the 14th arrondissement.

An urban circular walk in search of the French Revolution routes in two Parisian sites: the Bastille, whose capture had a very strong symbolic impact, and the Odéon suburb, where several key figures of the period lived, worked and gathered, including Marat and Danton. It's also an opportunity to discover the signs of other insurrectionary episodes (July 1830, May 1968) and a superb heritage ranging from the Gallo-Roman to the Middle Ages period.
