    Hiking

    Large park in Paris, located at the foot of the Eiffel Tower and near the Military School. The name is quite common in many cities and means that it was a place for parades and military maneuvers.
    Nowadays the Champs de Mars is very often used as a gathering place for Parisians or visitors, but has also been converted into a 'fan zone' for the 2016 Euro football tournament.

    Hiking

    If you want to admire the illuminated Eiffel Tower, especially after dark, then you should definitely visit this huge park. At dusk, if the weather is nice, a number of like-minded people gather here. Enjoying the beauty of the Eiffel Tower at night on a blanket with a bottle of wine, cheese and a baguette is not only fun but also an unforgettable experience.
    By the way: Street vendors also sell wine here, but it is overpriced. So it's better to bring your own.

    Hiking


    The Champ de Mars, also known as the Parc du Champ de Mars, is a green space originally used for military purposes and later frequently for exhibitions. Today, it covers 24.3 hectares in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. At its northwestern end, not far from the Seine, stands the Eiffel Tower, a relic of the 1889 Universal Exhibition. To the southeast, it is bordered by the Place Joffre and Avenue de La Motte-Picquet, which separates it from the École Militaire. A visit is highly recommended 👍.
