Carency (ruisseau) - Affluent du Souchez walks

A fairly classic route around Mont-Saint-Éloi (the area is very well signposted), with three less-travelled sections to Villers-au-Bois. It's a bit winding (not intuitive, as one of my friends always says), but it allows you to take a few less-frequented paths.

This route will delight you with its diversity of landscapes. Enjoy some panoramic views and the ancient abbey of Mont Saint-Eloi. (19) See: practical information.

A green route around Ablain Saint-Nazaire, joining Gouy-Servins and stopping on the way back at the tomb of Arsène Lemaire "La Guérisseuse" (The Healer).

This easy circular route takes you on a discovery of the Carency valley and the commune of Souchez.You will appreciate the role of the embankments, which are essential for agriculture, and admire several buildings that were rebuilt identically after the village of Souchez was completely destroyed during the First World War.

The starting point is the Notre-Dame de Lorette Memorial, built here to pay tribute to the martyrs of the First World War. You will pass through the beautiful villages of Ablain-Saint-Nazaire and Carency. In fine weather, you’ll enjoy some panoramic views. Allow a good two hours walking at a normal pace without stopping. We hope you enjoy a lovely walk through our beautiful Artois hills.

This walk from Carency takes you through Villers-au-Bois between plains and woods without any great difficulty. Carency was a seigneury until around 1620, then became a barony until 1665 before becoming a marquisate.

A short hike for the whole family. Starting from the old station, you will walk to Ablain-Saint-Nazaire, passing in front of the old church and along the Souchez. This hike can be enjoyed in all seasons.

This local hike starting from La Pyramide will take you around Souchez along good paths. You will walk along the Souchez river and then climb up to the site of Notre-Dame de Lorette before returning to the village via Parc Cassin.
