A Paris cycling adventure
Cycle along the Seine
The sun is setting, casting the Alexandre III Bridge in a golden light. You turn right and catch the cycling path heading toward the Eiffel Tower, its hard black lines breaking up the orange and pink sky like stained glass.

There are throngs of pedestrians strolling along the seine, separated from your bike path by a few metres of grass and mature trees. You certainly don’t have to brave the storm of traffic if you want to cycle for leisure in Paris. This dedicated bikeway is quite pleasant. And for tonight, this is where you’ll stay.
