Fauquembergues walks
An uphill battle
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).
From Turkey to Fond Breton (in less than 10 km!)
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.
On the plateau between the Lys and the Aa
A long route with a significant elevation gain on paths that are generally in very good condition.
Hills and valleys in Coyecques
From the Lys Valley to Noir Mont and discovery of the hidden valley of Maisnil.
The route is almost entirely off-road, either on good grassy paths or vaguely paved paths.
Do not look for markings, as there are none.
From Wismes to the Bois d'Esquerdes via the Montagne d'Elnes
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.
From Reclinghem to Mont d'Erny
Three nice climbs and a long stroll on the plateau for a walk in the countryside. A very hilly first part, then a long route on the heights before descending to Reclinghem with a magnificent view. The icing on the cake is a little extra circular that brings the elevation gain to over 300 m.
Back to the Elnes hillside
This place is so beautiful that it deserves a second route.Another good climb with 2 nice climbs and a maximum of paths and trails.
Difficult in dry weather and very difficult in wet weather.
Walk through the Artois Heights
A winding route offering superb views of the Artois heights and the Bléquin valley.
Around Bomy
A short walk in the Artois region, particularly pleasant in autumn.
The Créquy Woods
A long route with virtually no roads, based on three short hiking trails: the Maury, the Têtards and the Fréniaux.It is best to walk this route during a dry period, as the paths can be quite rough in wet weather.Three-quarters of the walk takes place on the edge of or within the woods.
The Wavrans Valley
The Wavrans-sur-l'Aa nature reserve consists of two hillsides separated by a dry valley, Mont Carrière and Montagne d'Elnes. The chalky slopes of the reserve are steep and unusual for the region. They were also "sculpted" by the bombs of the Second World War.
The upper Lys valley
The source of the Lys, the Lugy Mill and a beautiful route on the plateau (beautiful views).This hike can be more difficult in wet weather as some of the paths are regularly ploughed.There is some tarmac, but only on small roads.
Please note: the path leading up into the Lugy woods after the (5) can be very difficult in wet weather.
Yellow River Trail
A short walk around the La Coupole blockhouse, where forest and magnificent ponds come together.
5 woods and some steep slopes
A very hilly route over the Artois heights.
A great sporting outing with beautiful scenery.
Henry V Trail in Azincourt
A beautiful hike along the Henry V trail around the plain where the Battle of Agincourt took place in 1415.
On the ridges around Bergueneuse
More than 22 km of trails for a nature trail with some nice climbs and descents. Sharpen your calves!Beautiful views, woods and, if you're lucky, a few wild animals. At least, the ones that the hunters don't slaughter, as we recently freed two roe deer caught in snares (fox traps, but any animal can get caught there, and it's legal!).
The humpback bridge at the start of Équirre
Starting from Équirre Castle, which was reduced by half following a fire, this walk takes you to the small village of Prédefin and back via the Lisbourg plain. The paths taken by the GRP® Tour du Ternois Nord are partly cultivated between points (8) and (9), but don't hesitate to cross them as they are often used by farmers.
Circular North loop of Bergueneuse
A beautiful circular route north of Bergueneuse with pretty paths and good climbs. Get your calves ready and let's go!
Please note that in wet weather, some paths become difficult (between (1) and (2), between (5) and (6) in particular), which significantly increases the journey time.
