Lake Gravelle

Highlight • Lake

Located to the south-east of the Bois de Vincennes, Lac de Gravelle is the smallest of the four local lakes. Its area revolves around one hectare. Formerly supplied by the Marne, today the water is brought back from the Seine thanks to a hydraulic system provided by the pumping plant of the Pont d'Austerlitz. This preserved natural site is in fact quite artificial. But no less charming!

Vincennes Castle

Highlight • Castle

The Château de Vincennes impresses with its size. The building itself is not gigantic but the whole complex covers a large area. It has a very long history and sits at the gates of one of the most beautiful parks around Paris. To know: it is one of the crossing points of the Paris marathon!

Lake Daumesnil

Highlight • Lake

Lake Daumesnil is a must-see in the Bois de Vincennes. A fairly large body of water where you can take in the air and admire the nature of Ile-de-France.

It is, however, an artificial lake created during the Second Empire. But it offers a natural break a few steps from the capital, to the delight of Parisians.
