Diabéto 2026 via the Lime Kiln
The start and finish are in Waudrez. An easy, rural route with historical information and anecdotes available throughout the walk. Although Waudrez may appear to be a village ‘without a history’, it has a rich past, and its proximity to Binche meant it was often occupied or even destroyed by enemy troops.
