Bondy – Paris Notre-Dame
Follow the Canal de l’Ourcq greenway, then the Canal Saint-Martin, and on through the historic centre. On the Île de la Cité, Notre-Dame is the highlight of the route with its flamboyant Gothic architecture.
Since the fire in April 2019, the cathedral has been partially rebuilt. It is now open to the public. Once the restoration is fully complete, visitors will be able to enjoy the spectacular view of Paris from its roof, with its famous gargoyles and chimeras.
Three other major cycle routes pass through Paris : the Seine à Vélo, the London-Paris Greenway and the Véloscénie.
