A lovely walk reminiscent of the old route of the Bievres Valley. Luckily, we avoided the extension of the A10 to the ring road! A fun route, but watch out for pedestrians and cross streets...

The Roman Catholic parish church of Notre-Dame-du-Travail (Our Lady of Labor) was built around 1900 near the Montparnasse train station. The building, whose design is reminiscent of Romanesque architecture, is an iron structure with stone-clad facades. The church is located at 59 Rue Vercingétorix in the 14th arrondissement of Paris; the nearest metro station is Pernety (Line 13).

The Coulée Verte (Green Belt) in southern Paris is a real pleasure to ride. It is dotted with parks and green spaces where you can take a pleasant break.

Eugène Christophe was the first rider to wear the yellow jersey in the Tour de France. This park in Malakoff, his hometown, is dedicated to him.

Founded in the mid-6th century and rebuilt from the end of the 10th century, this is the oldest church in the capital. It is Romanesque in style. A jewel of unique beauty!
