A post shared by L'Atelier d'Amaya (@latelierdamaya) Jardins du musée Albert-Kahn 10-14, rue du Port – Boulogne-Billancourt More information La Coulée Verte Aménagée sur une ancienne voie de chemin de fer, la Coulée Verte., there are more than 4 km of greenery that cross the 12th arrondissement. You can take a little route to run, but it's tiring. So we prefer to sit down and have a picnic. Instead of inviting them to a very common place, prefer one of the many hidden spots of grass.Voir cette publication sur InstagramThe Greenway

The Wild Garden Frédéric DardIn Abbesses hides a tiny Parisian garden, where plants and wild herbs grow freely, and where it's nice to sit with friends or lovers away from the hustle and bustle. But shh, the spot is well-known, we count on you not to disclose the hiding place. Thank you in advance.

The Orgemont HillMontmartre? So overrated. Now, we gladly climb the 250 steps that separate us from one of the most beautiful views of Greater Paris! In addition to overlooking a real green but still urban balcony, The Orgemont Hill delights us with a windmill and a huge expanse of lawn where we can have some fun (and get sunburned). To do this, head to Argenteuil (95)

The Monceau ParkThe chicest of the list, it remains accessible nonetheless. Inhabited by white-collar workers and students during the week, joined by the army of strollers and kids' birthday parties on the weekends. Nevertheless, it remains very pleasant, it was even recommended in our list of gardens to make love in Paris. Hehe

The Clichy Batignolles - Martin Luther King ParkIn the heart of the Batignolles neighborhood, the Martin Luther King Park, completed in 2020, is the largest park in the 17th arrondissement, covering 10 hectares. Vegetal and aquatic atmospheres fill this park where strollers come to walk, play with their little ones, or complete their weekly workout session.

Parc Andre CitroenLocated on the site of the former Citroën factory in Paris, Parc Andre Citroen is one of the newest parks in the city: it was inaugurated in 1992. It is also the only green space in Paris that opens onto the Seine River. With the Jardin Blanc, Jardin Noir, and the central park, there are three areas to explore, where you can find rare plants, exotic trees, and two huge greenhouses. For sports enthusiasts, there are facilities available, while children rush to the playground, and adults engage in a lively game of ping pong. Oh, and when the weather is nice, the large gas balloon offers a 150-meter ascent. Dare to try it?

Parc MontsourisJust a stone's throw away from the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris, Parc Montsouris is one of the most beautiful parks in Paris, with its 1400 trees, most of them being over a century old. Inspired by London parks and beloved by local students, we love to kick off our shoes and relax on the grass while watching the swans and ducks swim in the pond. Along our stroll, we also come across bronze or stone sculptures, and sports enthusiasts have a blast playing football and basketball on the fields.

Parc de la VilletteWith its 55 hectares of green spaces, Parc de la Villette is the largest in the capital, and undoubtedly the favorite spot for Parisians to have a picnic or enjoy a drink at the end of the day. The gardens invite us to discover the 12 green areas of the park, as well as playgrounds, water features, and intimate spaces surrounded by nature. But Parc de la Villette is also a hub of cultural activities: you can visit the Philharmonie de Paris, Cabaret Sauvage, Péniche cinéma, the City of Science and Industry, or even the Grand Halle to explore various exhibitions.

Parc Floral de ParisThe Parc Floral is 35 hectares of nature in the heart of the 12th arrondissement, and the best alternative if you want to avoid the crowds of Buttes-Chaumont or Villette. In the middle of the Bois de Vincennes, you can discover thousands of beautiful plants and flowers, as well as a series of themed gardens with over 200 varieties of tulips and colorful dahlias. And if you're more interested in fauna than flora, the Paris Zoological Park is just a stone's throw away.
