Le trail to fl'Eure d'eau is perfect for you, parents and children, even little ones! This loop of 2,5km takes you along the Seine, without any difficulty. You can even stop to handle the educational panels about the fauna and flora that inhabit the nature around you. Take magnifying glasses, binoculars, treasure boxes Have fun !
Small + : you can even picnic on the esplanade of the sails of liberty, starting and ending point of the walk.
Trail accessible in stroller but rather all terrain ! If possible, favor the baby carrier and wear good shoes, the place is humid.
The eel trail
