Chemins de Grandes Randonnees

The trail runs alongside the metro and RER railway tracks, as well as the banks of the Seine. It also crosses the Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, a romantic park designed in the 19th century. The path passes through the Parc de la Butte-aux-Cailles, a picturesque neighborhood with colorful houses, and then through the Parc Montsouris, a vast landscaped park created in the 19th century. At the Porte de la Villette, the trail passes through the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie, a major cultural and scientific complex. In the Butte-aux-Cailles neighborhood, the trail runs along the former line of fortifications of Paris, built in the 18th century. In the Parc Montsouris, the trail passes by the Château de Montsouris, a 19th-century chateau that now houses a scientific research center.
