Best River Seine Day Trips & Things to Do

This beautiful 485-mile long French river begins at Source-Seine near Dijon flowing through Paris and Le Havre into the English Channel. Many bridges notably Pont Louis-Philippe, Pont du Carrousel and Pont Neuf cross the river that is an important source for water in some of its surrounding regions. Source-Siene contains a grotto created in the 19th Century in honor of the Seine Nymph because many believed the River Seine could heal people. Dijon Archaeological Museum features many Seine Nymph statues from the grotto site. Notable landmarks along the River Seine are the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, Louvre Museum, Musee d'Orsay, Grand Palais and Place de la Concorde. Show All
