Quick ride by bicycle from Paris to Saint-Maurice

Hop on your bike and roll out from the heart of Paris—where grand boulevards and iconic sights set the mood for your ride! This 9 km route takes you southeast from the city center to the riverside suburb of Saint-Maurice, ideal for a chill ride with a comfortable mix of dedicated cycleways and quiet side roads (more than two-thirds of the way!).

Expect a gentle workout: there’s just under 70 meters of ascent, so it’s smooth enough for most riders. You’ll zip through parks, skirt the leafy edge of the Bois de Vincennes, and catch glimpses of the Seine—perfect spots for a quick break or a scenic photo.

Saint-Maurice itself is a charming town just outside the city bustle, famous for its riverside walks and historic royal connections. Most of the route is paved and super easy to navigate, so whether you’re commuting or just out to explore, it’s a pleasant spin between classic Paris sights and calmer suburban vibes. Don’t forget to grab a pastry at the end—you’ve earned it!
