Very difficult
Departure from Chaville (Hauts-de-Seine)
A beautiful, challenging hike in the forest, just a stone's throw from Paris. Choose between 25 km or 35 km, with 700 and 900 m of elevation gain respectively. Despite a few urban sections, most of the route is in the heart of the forest, shaded by deciduous trees. The forest is beautiful, and there are some lovely views, but the appeal is more athletic than touristy.
The route includes many quick changes of direction, making it difficult to follow without GPS.
The entire route is less than 10 km from the western part of Paris.

Departure from Sèvres (Hauts-de-Seine)
The second section of the women's march of 5 October 1789 takes more liberties with the supposed route of the procession at the time. Starting in Sèvres and ending in Versailles, the route is distinctly urban, but between the two, it is predominantly forest. The Palace of Versailles is the highlight of this hike (with its park if you wish to take an extra detour).
