For two months (until August 24th), the banks of the Canal de l’Ourcq offer a multitude of activities. A delightful way to enjoy Parisian summer in this charming neighborhood.
Less touristy and more “Parisian” than the center of the city (where are Paris Beaches), you will find a rich and varied program. Urban Art Tours, biking, pedalo, cruises, music and dances … Events do not miss!
Urban Art course
Thirty urban contemporary artists took over Canal’s furnitures on the edges of the River. A nice walking route to discover Street-Art from the 19th arrondissement to Aulnay-sous-Bois

Biking and pedalo
Over water since the 19th arrondissement to the Parisian suburbs, take a ride on cycle paths and discover the diversity of landscapes along the canal. You can also spend some quality time on the water by renting a pedalo.
