Departure from Douchy-lès-Ayette (Pas-de-Calais)
An easy walk on decent paths.
Ideal for autumn as the paths seem to cope well with damp conditions.
A few tarmac sections but virtually no motorised traffic.
Passes near the Bois d'Adinfer, which is unfortunately private except for a short stretch of path on the way out of Adinfer.
Little elevation gain. This walk can be completed in under 3 hours.
The only potential issue is perhaps finding parking at the starting point (???)

The route is in a very urbanised area, but it is almost always on paths and it is pleasant to follow a river for so long.Apart from the length, it is not too difficult.For enthusiasts, there are numerous information panels, first between Agny and Wailly, then in Rivière.
In the past, you used to see lots of deer at the start of the walk (near the "Le Marché à Dieu" woods), but I haven't seen any since the Rocade Sud was built.
