walking paris

30 routes — editor-walked, or clearly flagged until they are.

Paris rewards the walker who ignores the river for Belleville's climb, the Marais courtyards, and Canal Saint-Martin at its emptiest.

Paris was built to be read on foot, one arrondissement bleeding into the next. Start in Le Marais, where the medieval street plan survived Haussmann's rulers, then climb to Père-Lachaise or the slopes of Montmartre for the long view. The good hours are early, before the terraces claim the pavement. Bring stamina; the city hides its best stretches behind a climb.

No leaderboards, no algorithm — just the walks the editor thought were worth your time, with notes on what to actually look at along the way.
