The protected areas reaching the commune, and the nearest: national parks, regional nature parks, nature reserves and Natura 2000 sites.
Designations overlap (a regional park can hold a Natura 2000 site), so the rows don’t add up; the first counts each piece of land once.
100% of Asnières-sur-Oise’s land is protected, more than in 93% of compared French towns; the median compared town in Val-d'Oise has 0%. A regional nature park is a charter between communes to look after a landscape: farming, building and hunting go on inside it.

Paths, bridleways, steps and tracks open on foot, and waymarked hiking routes, mapped on OpenStreetMap inside the commune; woods are mapped forest and woodland, private woods included.
That is more than in 75% of compared French towns for footpaths per km², and for woodland more than in 92% of compared French towns. Hiking routes often follow paths and lanes already counted, so the two lengths overlap: don’t add them. Every home in Asnières-sur-Oise is within 800 m of a mapped park or wood, as in most French towns.
