France for visitors

Participatory sports
France > Paris > Basics > Activities > Participatory sports

Ice-skating, skateboarding, jogging, billiards, boules – it's all here to be enjoyed. Recently, cycling and rollerblading have become popular. Soccer-players may be able to shoulder their way in to a pick-up game in the Jardin des Tuileries. One sport that is not really worth trying in Paris is horse riding (équitation). You need to have all the gear with you and a licence, the Carte Nationale de Cavalier, before you can mount.


Pages in section ‘Participatory sports’: Rollerblading and skateboarding, Ice skating, Jogging – and the Marathon, Cycling, Billiards and pool, Boules, Tennis, squash and table tennis.
