Gita in bici di un giorno da Vincennes a Meudon

Here’s a great ride from Vincennes to Meudon, perfect if you want to see some classic Parisian suburbs and get a bit of a workout without venturing too far. The route is about 23 km long and mostly paved, with a nice mix of dedicated cycleways (around 43%) and peaceful quiet roads.

You’ll start in Vincennes, right by its famous château—a medieval fortress with a moat and tall towers, so a great spot for a quick photo op. Heading southwest, you’ll skirt the edge of Paris, roll through leafy neighborhoods, and maybe catch some glimpses of the city skyline along the way. There’s a gentle ascent (just under 200 meters overall), so prepare for a bit of hill action as you approach Meudon, but nothing too tough.

Meudon is known for its beautiful forests and panoramic views over Paris—plus, it’s packed with history thanks to its old observatory and artists’ connections. All in all, this is a super pleasant cross-town ride, mostly on smooth asphalt, and a perfect way to link two cool suburbs without ever hitting busy city traffic.
