In the Seine-Saint-Denis département, near Aulnay-sous-Bois and Villepinte, you'll find the second largest park in the département: the Parc Départemental du Sausset.

With its huge 200-hectare surface area, Parc du Sausset was created in 1981 in the Seine-Saint-Denis towns ofAulnay-sous-Bois and Villepinte. Designed to offer walkers and local residents a relaxing break in the heart of nature, Parc du Sausset also features a beautiful pond,Etang de Savigny, and large lawns, perfect for lounging in the sun on sunny days.

Within easy reach of the Navigo pass from Villepinte station (RER B), the park is perfect for an outdoor outing: with its rich flora and fauna, its remarkable tall trees and its "prés carrés" - vast lawns designed for relaxation - the Parc du Sausset is one of those great parks where you love to stroll, jog, picnic and so on. You're sure to find moorhens, coots, rushes and other birds swimming on the Savigny pond, amid the water lilies. A bridge spans the pond, in a nod to Monet's famous water lilies in his Giverny garden.

For children, there's a lovely play area, a labyrinth, ping-pong tables and an area dedicated to rollerblades and bicycles ; for adults, there's a relaxing forest trail and a 6.5 km hiking trail. Picnic tables are also available for visitors, with an on-site refreshment bar at certain times of the year (and a pétanque court!).

All year round, the Maison du Parc offers activities for children around its vegetable garden, to discover the flora and fauna... Parc du Sausset is home to a wealth of wildlife: woodpeckers, chickadees, owls, rabbits, foxes, hedgehogs and many insects inhabit the park, making it a true biodiversity hotspot for the region. There's also a small educational vineyard with 2,480 grapevines: every year, wine is made from the grapes harvested!
