Paris as a Strava art canvas

Paris sits in a north-bending arc of the Seine, whose crest holds the city's two natural islands, the Île de la Cité and the Île Saint-Louis. The city spreads over both banks and is relatively flat; Montmartre, at 130 m, is its highest hill. The Boulevard Périphérique, a 35 km ring road, encloses an oval of about 87 km², divided into 20 arrondissements that spiral clockwise.

All four of our routes reach the islands or cross the river. The moon goes over the Île de la Cité on Pont au Double, Pont d'Arcole and Pont Neuf, and the flower touches the Île Saint-Louis on Pont Marie and Pont Louis-Philippe. The clover uses five bridges, among them Pont Royal, and the dove crosses four times, from Pont de Bir Hakeim in the west to Pont d'Arcole.
