List of dog-friendly gardens and parks in Paris

The Mairie de Paris has published a useful list of Paris parks and gardens that allow dogs (PDF) – well worth consulting, because Paris is pretty strict about dogs in parks.

The name of the park is in the left column. The middle column shows that dogs are allowed on that property; if there’s a caption, it describes the limits to the area where dogs are allowed. The right-hand column describes the parts of the park where dogs are not allowed. So, for example, in the Jardins des Champs-Elysées, dogs are allowed on the “allées cavalières” or bridle paths, which I assume means the Allée Marcel Proust and similar. Dogs are not allowed in the “aires de jeux pour les enfants,” or children’s play areas.

Remember to bring a poop bag with you! Picking up after your dog is the rule, even if it’s not always observed by the locals.
