Departure from Wailly (Pas-de-Calais)
The route is in a very urbanised area, but it is almost always on paths and it is pleasant to follow a river for so long.Apart from the length, it is not too difficult.For enthusiasts, there are numerous information panels, first between Agny and Wailly, then in Rivière.
In the past, you used to see lots of deer at the start of the walk (near the "Le Marché à Dieu" woods), but I haven't seen any since the Rocade Sud was built.

Departure from Thélus (Pas-de-Calais)
Près de l'agglomération d'Arras, une balade champêtre.Beaucoup de chemins et de petites routes peu carrossables.
Pour pimenter un peu le circuit, j'ai ajouté une partie du sentier de la Vignette (en sens inverse donc pas de balisage) qui permet de faire le tour du Bois de Vimy. Ce parcours est assez difficile mais fort plaisant et maintenant bien entretenuCe circuit peut être shunté, pour un gain d'environ 4 km.

Moderate
Departure from Thélus (Pas-de-Calais)
Very few roads on this rural route, which becomes quite difficult in wet weather. Although the elevation gain does not seem significant, the Sentier de la Vignette, on the northern edge of Vimy Wood, is very hilly, with steep slopes that will give your calves a good workout. It is, of course, possible to go down into the trenches and wander a little through this labyrinth.

Departure from Douchy-lès-Ayette (Pas-de-Calais)
An easy walk on decent paths.
Ideal for autumn as the paths seem to cope well with damp conditions.
A few tarmac sections but virtually no motorised traffic.
Passes near the Bois d'Adinfer, which is unfortunately private except for a short stretch of path on the way out of Adinfer.
Little elevation gain. This walk can be completed in under 3 hours.
The only potential issue is perhaps finding parking at the starting point (???)
