Goeulzin via Petite Sensée river
This family trail follows the trails of the Petite Sensée, a small river at the gateway to the Douais urban area, winding through the village of Goeulzin.Easy to navigate, it can be enjoyed all year round, but in wet weather you'll need to wear waterproof footwear.
Around the Scarpe in Douai
This walking route follows the Scarpe bypass and the River Scarpe. It ends with a tour of some of Douai’s historic monuments:
- The Douai Belfry (10): a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offering magnificent views if you’re up for climbing its steps.
- Saint-Pierre Collegiate Church (11): an impressive church with remarkable Gothic architecture.
- The Palace of Justice (former Parliament of Flanders) (12): a historic monument steeped in history.
Between Vitry and Brebières
A short, picturesque round trip along the towpath.
Around the Saudemont marsh
A leisurely walk of less than two hours on flat terrain in a natural, sparsely built-up environment.
It partly follows the route of another walk I really like, but in the opposite direction, which offers a different perspective: Hamel and its marshes, a little piece of Canada
From Hamel to Arleux along the marshes
A lovely little walk along the beautiful Hamel and Arleux ponds.
Hamel and its marshes, a little Canada
From Hamel, you can explore the marshes of the region - it's like a little Canada! You'll also discover man-made works such as the Église de l'Écluse, an unusual barge, the Canal du Nord with the Palluel lock and nature trails.
A stroll around Douai’s marina
A short walk along the River Scarpe and the marina. There are a few pieces of street art to discover.
Around the Bois Duquesnoy forest, starting from Arleux
The walk begins along the Canal du Nord and then continues along country lanes. When you arrive in Oisy-le-Verger, you are immediately greeted by the horses at the riding centre. Then we weave our way through to the Bois Duquesnoy. As I can't take my dog on the municipal tidal paths, I turn off early to continue along a quiet, leafy country lane. Finally, we return along the canal to the car park. Enjoy your walk.
Marsh trail around Biache - Saint-Vaast
Hiking through the marshes of Biache - Saint-Vaast, Plouvain Roeux and Pelves.
Lallaing: starting from the mining estates
I suggest a walk starting from the Cité de la Fosse Bonnel, a route that circles the town through accessible natural areas.A varied walk combining history, nature and landscapes typical of the mining basin. Explore the Germignie Sud slag heap and part of the landscape.
Brunémont marshes and wildlife observation
Starting from Brunémont Town Hall, this easy trail offers the chance to discover the many charms of the Sensée canals, the star river of the area. At the confluence of the Canal du Nord and the Canal de la Sensée, this walk along towpaths and paths bordering the ponds offers a pleasant and safe setting. Along the edges of the ponds, the reed beds and willow groves are home to beautiful populations of marsh ferns. Be mindful of the environment, as the Aubigny and Brunémont marshes are an important heritage site for wildlife, particularly herons, marsh warblers and grass snakes.
Slag heaps 87 and 92 in Dourges
A route that will take you to the Sainte-Henriette slag heap, the landmark that marks the entrance to the mining basin when approaching from Paris, visible from the TGV line and the A1 and A21 motorways. You’ll climb its neighbouring ‘little brother’ and enjoy a superb view. Not to be missed.
On the banks of the Sensée du Nord canals and the Sensée marshes
A hike between the canal and the Sensée marshes.
Visit the old peat bogs to discover the aquatic fauna and boat activity.
During the hike, you will pass through the Palluel lock.
In the heart of the Sensée marshes, between the land of smoked garlic in Arleux and that of shallots in Bugnicourt.
A rejuvenating walk along the River Scarpe
On the edge of the Plaine Scarpe–Escaut Regional Nature Park, explore the commune of Anhiers, where nature is gradually reclaiming the area – a former mining village ravaged by the war between 1914 and 1918. Today, you’ll come across old structures such as the concrete headframe dating from 1920. The post-industrial atmosphere immerses us in this past of social struggle, before we resume our walk along the banks of the Scarpe.
