Bours walks
In the footsteps of the Bours family
From the Bours Keep, passing by the Fontaine de la Baloche fountain, then through the Bois de Lanoy woods and past Antigneul Castle, the hike follows grassy paths offering beautiful views.
Bours keep
The walk starts from the Donjon de Bours (Bours keep) and takes you up to the plateau with its remarkable views. You'll then head back down to the village, finishing with a stroll through the narrow streets of Bours.
Path from the keep starting from Bours
This hike starts at the Bours keep and takes us along paths and through woods to the top of a hill with remarkable views. You will descend via Les Eguerguettes towards the village. Please note: the descent is difficult in wet weather. The hike ends with a short tour of the narrow streets of Bours.
The hills of Faux
A beautiful, undulating trail on the Ternois hillsides. Donjon de Bours (keep).
La Creuse de Boyaval
In the Ternois, after a loop on the small roads of Sains-les-Pernes, head towards Fiefs, before descending to Boyaval via a wild hollow and returning to Sains-les-Pernes via the Chemin Vert, which would benefit from regular maintenance.
It is best to walk this route in dry weather, as some sections are difficult.
This is a difficult route because the paths are tricky and you need to be careful not to miss the entrances to some of the trails.
Le Moulin Blanc at the start of Brias
A beautiful route starting from Brias with its church and castle towards the Moulin Blanc plain, the village of Valhuon and the Bois d'Antigneul, where it is not uncommon to encounter a few deer. This route is marked in yellow for the most part and is fairly easy to follow and without difficulty.
The two woods and the Coqueline
A very pleasant nature trail in dry weather, but becomes more challenging in wet weather: grassy sections (a good test for your shoes, deep ruts, muddy sections).
Warning: October 2024. While it's relatively easy to get through the ruts, the last part of the path out of the wood (before point 9) is in a terrible state. The path has been broken up by machinery and you can only pass along the sides, which are themselves very difficult. It's very slippery and sometimes you have to change sides, which is a real challenge. This used to be a signposted mountain bike trail, is it still?
In the footsteps of Saint Benedict
The Ternois is a beautiful region in northern France. There used to be an abbey where good cheese was made, and there is still a shop selling local products.
La Divionnaise
This hike, between town and countryside, will take you through towns and parks. You will walk along the Biette river and then climb the slag heap. You will discover pits 5, 5 bis, 1 and 1bis, which is the deepest in the mining basin at 1,186 metres.
The source of the Lawe from Bajus
This hike will take you from the plains to the woods via Thieuloye and Rocourt en l'Eau, where the Lawe river has its source. Bajus was a village where French troops rested before going to the front during the First World War
The valleys of Ourton
A long route that takes us from the mining landscape to the Artesian countryside.
La source de la Lawe
Randonnée au départ de La Comté qui nous mène près de la source de la Lawe.
Paysage très agréable et quelques vallonnements.
Eps and Herbeval mountains
A short but very hilly route (carto-explorer even gives 230m elevation gain) around the village of Eps, unjustly excluded by the marked trails. Beautiful views.Best done on a sunny day - it's magical!
Where Justice can lead to Hell
Another lovely route in the Ternois hills. Few roads and, in good weather, beautiful panoramic views.If you're lucky, you may also spot some deer (a herd of six at the end of February 2019).
The upper Lawe valley
A very pleasant trail, between river, forest and valleys.
From La Nave to Puits Sans Fond
Numerous trails for a walk that stretches between mountains and valleys.This hike is a great way to spend a day outdoors.
At the end of December 2019, after the rains, the paths became very difficult and particularly slippery (even on the flat sections!), both on the normal route and on the alternative route. Under these conditions, the walk can be classified as very difficult.
On the Plateau des Atrébates, starting from Frévillers
This is a long route without any major difficulties, apart from the distance. It follows a succession of wide paths and small roads, making it safe to walk even in wet weather. It is therefore ideal from October onwards.
Le Chemin des Voyettes Poulouches
The Chemin des Voyettes Poulouches, which you will take, will lead you from one voyette (small lane) to another and allow you to discover or rediscover our village.
Le Puits sans Fond depuis Febvin-Palfart
C’est un parcours en pleine nature. Sur les hauteurs, le randonneur apercevra l’Audomarois, les Monts des Flandres et le bassin minier. C'est un sentier balisé de la Communauté d'Agglomération du Pays de Saint-Omer.
