Hauts-de-Seine in Ile-de-FranceThe Hauts-de-Seine département, that crescent-shaped territory to the west of Paris, is never far from the capital. The metro, regional line train, train, buses and tram all link it to the historical centre of the City of Light in several minutes. It is also within direct, easy distance of Versailles château, as well as the airports of Roissy
The region boasts some 40 tourist attractions that will inspire you to travel its roads, its banks along the Seine, an even its 300 km of walking tracks. It also offers over 7 000 hectares of greenery, covering 45% of the département’s surface area.
From La Défense, Europe’s leading business centre with its famous big Arch, to the relaxing tranquillity of the Vallée-aux-Loups, Chateaubriand’s sanctuary, the Hauts-de-Seine are a permanent contrast.
