Paris was born on an island. Before the great streets, there was the Île de la Cité, a patch of land in the Seine. From there the city grew towards its two banks. To the north lies the rive droite, to the south the rive gauche. With Piracity you discover it on foot, like a treasure hunt for the whole family.

Paris — The Lost Treasure of the Île de la Cité

8 stops~2 h 30

Giulia Ferrari is 12 and has a notebook full of questions. In a Paris bookshop she finds a letter signed by Master Étienne Lefort, mapmaker of the Seine. In our story, Lefort hid his last map along a trail of towers, bridges and gardens. Follow it between the two banks. There are eight stops, about 3 km on foot and about 3 hours of play, plus your breaks.

Stops to discover

The sights along the route

The walk takes in eight places in the centre, all close to one another. You pass through Place Dauphine, a triangular square created by a king. Then you cross the Seine on the Pont Neuf. You stop halfway across the Pont des Arts, the footbridge in front of the Louvre. You will discover the rest stop by stop: Gothic churches, palaces of kings, arches and gardens.

It is about 3 km on foot on flat streets, and about 3 hours of play, plus your breaks. The route does not return to the starting point and ends near the metro.

History and culture, lived through play

Every stop tells a piece of history. There are medieval kings, architects of the 1800s and artists of our own time. There are questions about art and traditions, riddles, anagrams and little logic puzzles. The questions are designed for children aged 9 and up and for their parents.

You don't need to know everything already. Many answers are found by looking closely at what is in front of you, others by reasoning together. That way a walk becomes a challenge to play as a team.

An adventure that continues

Once the hunt is over, Paris still has plenty to offer families. The Jardin du Luxembourg, on the rive gauche, has lawns and playgrounds. Children push little sailing boats on its large pond. The hill of Montmartre offers a wide view over all the city's rooftops.

You can also take a boat trip on the Seine and spot from the water the bridges you have crossed. Every district has its own story: the next hunt is waiting for you.
