GR®75 Hiking Around Paris: Loop from La Villette (Ile-de-France)

The GR®75, established to commemorate the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, offers a unique 50 km loop around the French capital. This urban trail skirts the edges of Paris, mostly following the route of the former Petite Ceinture railway line and the "Green Belt" created in the 19th century. Hikers can discover surprising green spaces, such as the Kellermann Park, the Bois de Vincennes, and the Bois de Boulogne, while exploring the city's modern and historical sports facilities. It is a fantastic opportunity to see Paris from a different perspective, combining nature, history, and the Olympic spirit.

Distance: 50km, Elevation maximum: 125m, Elevation minimum: 28m, Elevation gain uphill: 553m
