Free access fitness area installed in the square Henri Collet, a public garden in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. The square opens onto rue Gros, rue La Fontaine, and place du Docteur Hayem, just a stone's throw from the Maison de la Radio.

The setting remains calm and green, with a playground for children and game tables nearby. Access is free during the garden's opening hours.
