Quick ride by bicycle from Paris to Pantin

Ready for a fun city ride? Start your trip right in the heart of Paris, surrounded by famous landmarks and bustling café life. From here, hop on the scenic cycleways heading northeast, weaving through the lively cityscape along mostly smooth, paved paths (with just a hint of cobblestone for that Parisian flair). Most of your route keeps you safely on dedicated bike lanes, with a little bit of paved roads and even some classic Paris paving stones under your wheels.

You'll gain just a touch of elevation—enough to keep it interesting, but nothing too challenging—before gliding gently down toward Pantin. Pantin is a vibrant suburb known for its revitalized canals, eclectic art spaces, and hip urban vibe. At only about 9 km, this ride is perfect for a leisurely escape from central Paris, and with most of the route off busy roads, it’s ideal for cyclists of all levels. Enjoy the urban scenery, soak up some local culture, and maybe finish with a stroll along the Canal de l’Ourcq once you arrive!
