A long route with a significant elevation gain on paths that are generally in very good condition.

Departure from Reclinghem (Pas-de-Calais)
Three lovely climbs and a long stroll across the plateau make for a walk surrounded by nature. A very hilly first section, followed by a long stretch along the heights before descending to Reclinghem with magnificent views. The icing on the cake is an optional circular loop I suggest, which brings the total elevation gain to over 300 m.

Departure from Fauquembergues (Pas-de-Calais)
It's a route that will delight altitude enthusiasts (Carto exploreur and the Visorando app suggest it's as high as 500m). What's more, the views are stunning.
Route slightly modified in November 2019.
All trails are very good as of May 14, 2020 (even if some are very grassy).

Departure from Renty (Pas-de-Calais)
A short but fairly strenuous route with a steep hill and some very grassy paths.
On 12/08/2025: the start of the trail is once again very overgrown (brambles and nettles). It's passable but it's best to wear trousers or good gaiters and, of course, bring a walking stick or even a pair of secateurs.

Exploring the Vallon de Beaussart and passing close to the Bois de Renty, always in the hope of spotting some wildlife: on 16 October, there were only a few pheasants, but they practically let you stroke them. A real treat for hunters!

Easy
Departure from Thérouanne (Pas-de-Calais)
Thérouanne was the capital of the Gallic tribe known as the ‘Morins’. The town was conquered by Julius Caesar. In the Middle Ages, it was the seat of an important bishopric stretching from the Canche to the Yser. It was completely destroyed following the siege by Charles V’s imperial army in 1553, as it was a French enclave.
This trail pays tribute to the three battles that took place at Enguinegatte during the capture of Thérouanne. It is a signposted trail managed by the Pays de Saint-Omer Urban Community.

A long route with very little tarmac and a superb climb.
There are also a few long straight stretches through the fields that will delight many!
Late July 2020:
- the section between points 6 and 7 is in excellent condition.
- at point 13, after the copse, you cross a maize field for about fifty metres (the path is clearly marked) before finding the track.

Departure from Remilly-Wirquin (Pas-de-Calais)
Another route around the Coteau d’Elnes with very little tarmac. Crossing the Bois d’Esquerdes is even more enjoyable, and the long walk along the riverbank is most pleasant.
