Overview

What's better than exploring Paris with your own legs? It's healthy, it's carbon-neutral, and it's a lot of fun!
We can cover a lot of ground in a two-hour jog, with lots of breaks for storytelling and pictures.
This scenic circuit explores all the iconic monuments that make Paris famous worldwide. You won't miss any must-sees and, what is better, you'll get to see them without crowds blocking the view, in the most beautiful light of the day.
So what do you say about chasing sunrise at the running pace in Paris? We're taking charge of water, the perfect route and directions, good humor (ah, the runner's high...), and exciting stories. All you have to do is lace up your running shoes! Let's go?
