Starting in Gagny, known for its peaceful parks and local vibe, you’ll find yourself rolling mostly on well-paved roads and dedicated cycleways—just the right amount of civilization with some gentle suburban charm.

You'll wind your way southwest for just under 24 km, passing through residential neighborhoods and skirting a few green spaces. The route is mostly flat with a couple of gentle climbs—nothing too strenuous—and surfaces are friendly for road and hybrid bikes alike.

With nearly half the journey on proper cycleways and traffic kept to a minimum, this is a relaxed suburban-to-urban ride ideal for anyone up for a scenic, not-too-crowded pedal.
