Coulée verte - Parc de Sceaux   -   13k


Hello Walkers,

As a short option for next Wednesday, I propose a 13km walk along the Coulée verte, located south of Paris. 
Created in the 1980s when the TGV Atlantique was built, the space above and alongside the rail-road line was transformed into a green ribbon for hikers and cyclists. 
We'll start at Châtillon then follow the track through Bagneux, Fontenay aux Roses, Sceaux with a detour to Parc de Sceaux where we'll have a look on the Château then we'll picnic under cherry trees. I hope the weather will permit us to sit on the carpet of petals, since the blossoming has just ended, sorry. 
After lunch (it will be 9km), you can take RER B at the nearby station Croix de Berny, zone 3, frequent trains to Paris. 
Otherwise we'll go on along the Coulée Verte passing through Châtenay then Antony to Massy-Verrières.

Getting there:

Take the Metro line 13 that passes through Gare St. Lazare and Gare Montparnasse direction Chatillon-Montrouge.
Get off at Châtillon-Montrouge, take Sortie Châtillon (on right) where I will wait for you. RV at 10am.

Return on the RER B or C from  station Massy Verrières (zone 4), trains every 15 minutes.

Looking forward to seeing you,


Dominika  





NB: Meeting point is at/on the platform, those who wish to travel together usually sit in 
the rear car. 


Advice to hikers / Conseils aux randonneurs:
Make sure that you are covered by a personal accident and liability insurance, that you are fit enough 
to do the walk, and have the proper equipment / Assurez-vous que vous êtes couvert par une assurance responsabilité civile, que vous avez la condition physique nécessaire pour faire la randonnée choisie et que vous avez l’équipement adapté.
