Porte Maillot walks

A walk through Paris exploring the Left Bank and its quartiers.

The streets of Levallois-Perret are decorated with a large number of trompe-l'oeil paintings and murals. This urban trail takes you on a tour of around thirty of them, as you stroll through the city's grid-like streets and cross some of its public gardens.

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.

A route that takes you to some of Paris's famous monuments on both banks of the Seine. You will pass through numerous gardens, some well-known and popular, others more secluded and offering a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle.

This walk allows you to stroll through the gardens that have been laid out in the heart of Paris and enjoy a relative calm that is hard to imagine so close to busy thoroughfares. Along the way, you will discover views of the Champs-Élysées and the Pont Alexandre III, some of Paris's most famous monuments and museums, and a rich and diverse collection of statues.

An approximate north-south crossing of the 17th and 8th arrondissements of Paris in search of animal representations. The architectural styles evolve throughout the route. The crossing of Parc Monceau offers a slice of greenery.

A walk through Paris's 15th arrondissement, starting at the Beaugrenelle slab, at the foot of the tall towers of the Front de Seine. Next, we cross Parc André Citroën and stroll through the streets and numerous squares of this arrondissement. We then pay tribute to Georges Brassens, in the street where he lived and then in the large park that bears his name. The walk ends along the disused Petite Ceinture railway line.

Baron Haussmann transformed Paris between 1852 and 1870. The 9th arrondissement of Paris is the epicentre of this transformation: the new roads, grand boulevards and crossroads highlight the buildings adapted to life under the Second Empire, including department stores, the opera house, theatres, music halls, churches, press headquarters, banks, covered passages, Morris columns, kiosks, etc. This tour will introduce you to the witnesses of this era and how they have adapted to today's Paris.

A hike from station to station in two stages. First, we zigzag through old Asnières, passing through squares and discovering a rich heritage. Then, we walk along the paths of the Gennevilliers green corridor, which winds its way through a highly urbanised setting.

This urban but relatively open route allows you to discover the main monuments of Paris on foot. You will see the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and Notre-Dame Cathedral, among others. The start and finish points are accessible by underground.
