On Sunday, June 11, 2023, four routes are offered starting from Mondonville for you to walk or cycle for as little as one euro.

On Sunday, June 11, the “Fil Vert” walking event returns! From the Mondonville Community Hall, you can enjoy walks ranging from 12 to 60 km alone or with family.

To participate, you need to register on the event website and pay a participation fee of one euro for those aged 14 and over. Three cycling routes and a (new) pedestrian route are available this day, providing plenty of nature to enjoy!

This is not Toulouse and its metropolitan area’s first initiative for decarbonizing transportation. They offer various types of transport: metro, tram, bus, free bike-sharing… and an urban cable car! Indeed, over a distance of three kilometers in the southern districts of Toulouse, the urban cable car connects three health hubs for residents: the Oncopole, Paul Sabatier University, and Rangueil Hospital.

This “Fil vert” cycling event will give residents a break from their daily routine!

Here are the four routes proposed by the Toulouse metropolitan area starting from Mondonville:
