Lac du Corra Nord - view of Bird Island

Highlight • Lake

Beautiful pond on the edge of the Saint-Germain-en-Laye national forest. The area is wilder and less frequented than the rest of the forest, so you can enjoy the peace and admire the many species of birds.

Maisons-Laffitte Castle

Highlight • Castle

From the Pont de Maison-Lafitte, you can see the castle in the distance, at the bottom of its garden. On the other side, we discover the main entrance with its golden gates. A real architectural nugget!

Gravel track on the banks of the Seine

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Super pleasant towpath, except the WE because there are quickly too many people. But during the week it is a real happiness. 🤗 And for die-hards, there is even a small bumpy single in parallel. 🥰

Great bike path in the middle of the city, with structural separation from the road. At some times, however, very crowded.

Wednesday night outing. On the program: the big single track of the Saint-Germain forest (at night it's a real roller coaster) and bridle paths. Then return along the Seine, a good hill and return by the quays at full speed
