• Two playgrounds, one on the allée de la Glacière and one near the Grille des Écoles gate, so plan your walk around them
• Hilly for strollers: they are allowed, but the estate recommends a baby carrier on its steep slopes
• Free kids' activity booklet for ages 6 to 12, following Hubert the dog around the estate, from the museum desk or as a download

A 460-hectare former royal estate on the hillside above the Seine, laid out by André Le Nôtre. The Grande Cascade, the Grand Jet basin and terraces looking toward Paris anchor the formal gardens; beyond them are English-style lawns, woods and a 19th-century landscape garden, the Jardin du Trocadéro.

There are two playgrounds, six places to eat, and a small museum on the vanished château.
