Guided visit of the jardin Atlantique above Montparnasse, Paris

Jardin Atlantique

On Monday 16 November 2026 at 14:30 a guided visit takes place at the jardin Atlantique in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, led by the city's guide-lecturers. The listing calls it a garden built on a slab, a technical feat, and places it above the railway tracks of Montparnasse station, on top of the great hall of the lost steps. It says you do not need a train to travel to the coast and enjoy a maritime atmosphere, since the planting palette includes seaside plants and the layout evokes boats, waves and a seascape. The garden is presented as unique, a technical and landscape success. The meeting point is place des Cinq Martyrs du Lycée Buffon, at the terminus of bus 91, and the visit runs from 14:30 to 16:00. It is open to adults, by reservation only, and the listing does not give a price. A guided walk like this is easy to join alone, since the group follows one guide and shares the same discoveries. «Au-dessus des voies ferrées de la gare Montparnasse se trouve l’extraordinaire salle des pas perdus.» Starts 14:30, ends about 16:00.

On Thursday 19 November 2026 at 14:30 a guided urban walk called Végétalisation des quartiers de la capitale sets off in the 12th arrondissement of Paris, at the corner of Boulevard Diderot and Rue Abel, by the post office. The walk runs from 14:30 to 16:00 and is led by guides from the City of Paris. It looks at how the city is becoming greener beyond its parks and adapting to climate change. The listing explains that planting along streets creates cool islands, improves daily surroundings and draws a path of nature that helps wild animals move through the city. The route has several stops that highlight actions by the City and by its residents to bring more plants into the capital. The event belongs to the Paris nature programme of free walks, workshops and outings, so it is free, but reservation is required and the listing marks it for adults.
