Difficult
Departure from Amplier (Pas-de-Calais)
This route partly follows an old marked trail (the Volpin) which seems to have disappeared (there are a few markings near Marieux). It would appear that in the north of the Somme, the lifespan of marked trails is as short as that of hares.
It is of course possible to do only 17 km (by turning left at point 11), but the small northern circular route is very interesting.
There are very few roads and the paths are very good, but sometimes very grassy.
The route will change in May 2024, as the path between the cemetery and the church is currently blocked.

A long hike in the north of the Somme. Most of the paths are in good condition (even in late winter) and there are occasional tarmac sections, but no traffic.
A lovely variety of landscapes! I find the Amplier Valley very beautiful and the path between Beauquesne and Beauval is very interesting.
