Au Nord-Ouest de Villers-au-Bois
This is a short route with little elevation gain, mainly on paths and trails.A big advantage in hot weather is that the start is in the open, but the end of the route is very shady.
The Chartiaux from Villers-au-Bois
A lovely walk through the Bois de la Loterie and Bois d’Ecoivres. Ascent of Mont Saint-Éloi, returning via the Artois countryside.
The donkeys
This walk will introduce you to this charming village in Artois and its surroundings. Following good paths across the plains and through the woods, you will reach the entrance to Mont Saint-Éloi, with a view of the old abbey.
Along the young Scarpe from Frévin-Capelle to Aubigny-en-Artois
During this walk of just over 8 km, you’ll walk in the shade alongside the Scarpe, which is still narrow here, and pass through three pretty villages with their white-stone farms and churches. You’ll also find a local pub, La Belle Époque, open every lunchtime except Tuesdays, opposite the town hall in Frévin-Capelle.
Discover the splendours of Mont Saint-Éloi, Écoivres & Acq
This walk is loosely based on the "Sentier des Pierres du Diable" (Devil's Stone Trail), but allows you to discover, alongside the famous Devil's Stones, the magnificent Mont-Éloi Abbey, the Écoivres war cemetery, the churches of Écoivres, Acq and Mont Saint-Éloi, and the Acq mill.

“La Charbonnière” route from Villers-Châtel
A pleasant walk through the Arrageois plain and the Bois Gauchin, passing through the villages of Caucourt, Béthonval and Mingoval.
Woods and hills at Gouy-Servins
A long route through the hills of Pas-de-Calais, with 7 to 8 km through woodland (Bois de Mont and Bois de Mont-Saint-Éloi). The route has been designed using sections of marked trails to minimise the amount of tarmac. This is a fairly difficult hike, particularly in wet weather.
La guérisseuse depuis Gouy-Servins
Petite randonnée, dans le Bois de Mont et le Bois de Marqueffles, en passant par l'oratoire et la tombe d'Arsène Lemaire qui soignait les maladies de peau, et les enfants atteints de la méningite. Elle est enterrée là, suite à sa demande, alors qu'elle a guéri un juge. Sa fille et son petit-fils avaient les mêmes pouvoirs. Je remercie son arrière-petite-fille pour ses informations.
Circular loop around the Servins mast
A lovely walk starting from Servins, passing through Bouvigny-Boyeffles, Hersin-Coupigny and Verdrel. You’ll walk along stony, grassy paths and a few roads. You’ll enjoy several views of the surrounding countryside.

Les antennes de Bouvigny
Une autre façon de voir la communauté de Lens-Lievin avec des vues depuis le plateau sur les Monts des Flandres, les terrils de Loos-en-Gohelle etc...
Circular Alouettes loop starting from Servins
The ideal time to visit this variant of Les Alouettes, with its beautiful vegetable gardens, magnificent hydrangea beds and a farmyard with a majestic and somewhat pretentious royal turkey.

Le Bois de Mont
A very green route in the Artois hills, with two beautiful climbs and a minimum of roads.
This route, which is already difficult, becomes very difficult in wet weather. I walked it on 25/02/2026 and some of the paths were barely passable.
The Chemin Vert in Aubigny-en-Artois
This is a reworking of an existing route, part of which has unfortunately disappeared due to lack of maintenance. The route through Aubignyen-Artois has also been modified to take the old, less busy streets, and a return trip to Villers-Châtel has been added to admire the church and castle.The circuit is done in the opposite direction to the signposting, which allows you to start with the most urban part.See practical information
Le chemin vert depuis Aubigny-en-Artois
Belle randonnée dans les paysages de l'Artois et ses villages.
Through the woodland on the hills above Ablin-Saint-Nazaire
A lovely little walk to enjoy when it’s very hot, as it’s largely shaded but not excessively so. The woodland is magnificent and the place exudes a sense of tranquillity. It’s a little hilly, but again, not excessively so.
However, I wouldn’t recommend doing it during wet weather, as theGR®127can get very muddy.
Les deux abbayes depuis Mont-Saint-Éloi
De la plaine de l'Artois au marais de Maroeuil par la traversée du bois, cette randonnée vous fera prendre un bol d'air.
Les Droites Pierres via Mont-Saint-Éloi
This walk starts in Écoivres, a hamlet in Mont-Saint-Éloi, and takes you through the surrounding villages. Don't forget to visit the Droites Pierres (Straight Stones), or Pierres du Diable (Devil's Stones) according to legend, and climb up to the old abbey.
Autour du bois d'Habarcq
Du porche majestueux de l'ancienne ferme principale de la commanderie des templiers jusqu'à l'église de Hermaville au clocher-tour imposant, édifiée en 1782 et classée "monument historique", une randonnée à travers champs, bosquets et bois sur des chemins en bon état. Cette randonnée emprunte par endroit la randonnée "Sentier des Templiers" éditée par l'Office du Tourisme des"Campagnes de l'Artois".
The upper woodlands of Bouvigny-Boyeffles as seen from the tall mast
Why ‘the upper undergrowth’? Because this walk takes place along the ridge of Notre Dame de Lorette (without actually going all the way there). The walk starts at the Bouvigny-Boyeffles TV transmission mast, the third-tallest structure in France at 305 metres. The view of it alone is an attraction in itself, as you’ll be parked about fifteen metres from the base – it’s quite dizzying. Even the first few metres offer a panoramic view of the mining basin.
Circular walk through the woods of Parc d'Olhain from Verdrel.
A superb little walk to do in good weather. Ideal in hot weather, this walk offers both the comfort of the forest and beautiful views, as most of the path to Parc d'Olhain runs along the edge of the forest. Views and coolness, what a joy.
The Motte de Notre-Dame de Lorette trail
A very beautiful walk starting from Marqueffles, in the commune of Bouvigny-Boyeffles, leading to Notre-Dame de Lorette.
Along the way, you’ll enjoy two superb panoramic views: one towards the ruins of Mont Saint-Éloi, and on the other side, the mining basin will unfold before you. A few forest paths and magnificent trees will line your route.
La véranda depuis Bouvigny-Boyeffles
Randonnée qui va vous emmener sur les hauteurs de Bouvigny à travers bois et plaine. Faites un arret à l'oratoire entre le point 4 et 5
Le Bois de Mont (short version)
Lots of paths, a beautiful crossing of the Bois (with decent tracks) and a beautiful view as you reach the plateau (but frequent fog in autumn).
2021: I've gone back to the original route, which is more pleasant.
Around Olhain
A long route with significant elevation gain and some fairly difficult paths.The path between (3) and (4) is very difficult but can be avoided. It was passable in late September 2025 (dry season).There are a few road crossings, but with very little traffic.
The Caucourt Ford
A short route, on paths that are more or less paved, pleasant in all seasons (except during very wet periods) with a passage at the Gué de Caucourt.
1- Hermin Town Hall advises against using the path between points (11) and (12) until the end of 2025. It is now April 2026 and nothing has changed: no works are underway and there are barriers on both sides. I have just walked along it and it is perfectly passable, though still treacherous.
La Pierre du Diable depuis Gauchin-Légal
Au départ, voir la pierre qui, selon la légende, déambulait la nuit et donnait des sueurs froides aux maris trompés et aux femmes infidèles. N'ayez plus peur, elle est solidement accrochée. Puis vous passerez au gué de Caucourt et son moulin.
La Cauchy depuis Gauchin-Légal
Belle randonnée dans la plaine de l'Artois en passant par le gué de Caucourt.
Circuit de Baraffles à Gauchin-Légal
Belle randonnée à travers le Bois d'Olhain, son parc départemental et les villages aux alentours. Belles églises et beaux châteaux au programme.
The Table des Fées as seen from Fresnicourt-le-Dolmen
A walk running alongside the golf course, through the Olhain Forest and past the Table des Fées dolmen.
Circular walk around Olhain Park starting from Olhain Castle
From the car park, you’ll find yourself facing Olhain Castle, one of the most beautiful in the region. The rest of the walk alternates between stunning views and short stretches through the undergrowth (not too dense) before reaching the ‘esplanade’ of Olhain Park. You’ll find yourself facing an exceptional panorama.
If you’re lucky, you might see paragliders taking off (admittedly, this is quite rare), and why not visit during the hot-air balloon festival to watch these huge, colourful balloons take off right before your eyes.
