By bicycle from Clichy to Vanves

Hop on your bike for a scenic urban ride from Clichy down to Vanves, cruising a neat 18 km through the heart of the Parisian suburbs! Starting out in Clichy—a vibrant, multicultural spot just northwest of central Paris—you’ll catch a real glimpse of local life as you roll out past street art, corner bakeries, and city parks.

The route is super kind to cyclists, with about 60% rolling along dedicated cycleways and most of the rest sticking to calm, quiet roads. You’ll breeze past the Seine and brush close to iconic Paris districts, shifting between bustling neighborhoods and peaceful green pockets. There’s just enough gentle ascent (about 100 meters total) to keep things interesting, but nothing too tough.

You’ll wrap up in Vanves, a chill, leafy suburb known for its weekend markets and close-knit community vibe. With its charming streets and easy connections to Paris proper, Vanves is the perfect spot to reward yourself with a post-ride coffee. All in all, this is a fun, approachable ride for city explorers who want to see a lively slice of Greater Paris!
