• Sparkling-water fountain among the eight drinking fountains, so bring a refillable bottle
• Toilets and a mister on site, handy on hot afternoons at the courts and playgrounds
• Enter on Rue d'Aubervilliers, since the Rue du Département and Rue Riquet gates are temporarily closed

Jardin d'Éole is a long, narrow park built on former rail land beside the tracks, on the edge of the 18th and 19th arrondissements. Its 4-plus hectares hold toddler playgrounds, a basketball court, ping-pong tables, a tennis practice wall and space for ball games, along with a big meadow, a planted canal and a gravel garden. One of its eight drinking fountains pours sparkling water.
