Cycling in Paris/ Ile-de-France If you prefer to cycle, no problem: hiring a bike is child's play, and for the last few years the capital has been making cycling a priority. Some of Paris Il de France parks allow bikes so that you can enjoy a cycle while still in the city. Outside there are multiple routs that take you through the beautiful countryside. On Sundays from April to October, the quays along the Seine are closed to cars, leaving the way free for cyclists and doubling the 100 km of cycle paths in Paris. For a few delightful excursions towards the "petite couronne", take the path which runs beside the Canal de l'Ourcq in the north, or the "green ribbon" in the south: these two circuits - following greenery or water - make wonderful semi-rural outings which take you outside Paris.
