A fun family park in the Asnières-sur-Seine neighborhood, Le Square de Marcel Leclerc offers everything a family might need for a nice afternoon or morning in the park.
With ample green space, many families decide to picnic here under the trees or taking in a little sun. While others play on the playground with the kids. There’s a rather large play area with a climbing hill and some ropes to balance on as well as two playgrounds for smaller and bigger kids, as well as a dedicated toddler playground. For the adventurous, there’s a small carousel that will cost you a few euros a ride. There’s also a small refreshment station, with drinks, Cotton candy, and a variety of sweet snacks.
Situated right next to Townhall (La Mairie), there are a variety of restaurants and shops nearby, including a Japanese restaurant right across the street. The Townhall often has events on its plaza as well, and the early afternoon I last visited, there were a variety of food trucks with a wide range of offerings.
One of the favorite features of my kids is the small pond that has a beautiful white swan, ducks, and turtles. There’s also an area to play pétanque, but you’ll have to bring your own balls. Like many Paris parks, there’s also a built-in ping-pong table for which you should also bring your own rackets.
Public toilets are available, though a bit stinky. Bikes and scooters are allowed in the park and there’s also a space to kick the ball around.
