Lors d’un séjour à Paris, la visite de la Tour Eiffel est un incontournable. Mais où aller se défouler (pour les enfants) ou se reposer (pour les parents 😉 ) après la visite ?
Je vous fais découvrir les grandes aires de jeux du Champ de Mars, à quelques minutes seulement de la célèbre tour.
En tournant le dos à la Tour Eiffel, direction l’école militaire – à l’autre bout du Champ de Mars – par le côté droit du parc. Au bout de quelques minutes de marche, vous apercevrez le Manège 1913 – un manège un peu particulier puisqu’il fonctionne entièrement manuellement – et son snack, parfait pour le goûter !
Derrière le manège, 2 grandes aires de jeux : l’une pour les petits à partir de 18 mois, l’autre pour les plus grands (à partir de 6 ans). Dans les 2 espaces, de nombreux jeux, balançoires, toboggans, de quoi ravir petits et grands !
Accès au manège 1913 et aux aires de jeux à l’angle de l’av. Charles Risler et Pierre Loti.
While staying in Paris, Eiffel Tower visit is a must. Question is: where to go after the visit to run, climb, jump and play (for kids) and rest (for the parents 😉 )?
Discover the large Champ de Mars playgrounds, few minutes walk from Eiffel Tower !
Turn your back to Eiffel Tower, and walk towards « Ecole militaire », the large old building on the other side of Champ de Mars garden, keeping your right all along. After few minutes walk, you’ll discover Manège 1913 – an old, full manually driven merry-go-round, and its snack – ideal for a drink or sweet.
Behind it, 2 large playgrounds: one for little ones from 18 months, the other one for older kids (from 6 year old). In those, many play areas, swings, slides …enough to enjoy all kids!
Access to manège 1913 and playgrounds through av. Charles Risler and Pierre Loti.
