The Chemin Vert in Aubigny-en-Artois
This is a reworking of an existing route, part of which has unfortunately disappeared due to lack of maintenance. The route through Aubignyen-Artois has also been modified to take the old, less busy streets, and a return trip to Villers-Châtel has been added to admire the church and castle.The circuit is done in the opposite direction to the signposting, which allows you to start with the most urban part.See practical information

Woods and hills at Gouy-Servins
A long route through the hills of Pas-de-Calais, with 7 to 8 km through woodland (Bois de Mont and Bois de Mont-Saint-Éloi). The route has been designed using sections of marked trails to minimise the amount of tarmac. This is a fairly difficult hike, particularly in wet weather.

La Pierre du Diable depuis Gauchin-Légal
Au départ, voir la pierre qui, selon la légende, déambulait la nuit et donnait des sueurs froides aux maris trompés et aux femmes infidèles. N'ayez plus peur, elle est solidement accrochée. Puis vous passerez au gué de Caucourt et son moulin.
The Caucourt Ford
A short route, on paths that are more or less paved, pleasant in all seasons (except during very wet periods) with a passage at the Gué de Caucourt.
1- Hermin Town Hall advises against using the path between points (11) and (12) until the end of 2025. It is now April 2026 and nothing has changed: no works are underway and there are barriers on both sides. I have just walked along it and it is perfectly passable, though still treacherous.

Through the woodland on the hills above Ablin-Saint-Nazaire
A lovely little walk to enjoy when it’s very hot, as it’s largely shaded but not excessively so. The woodland is magnificent and the place exudes a sense of tranquillity. It’s a little hilly, but again, not excessively so.
However, I wouldn’t recommend doing it during wet weather, as theGR®127can get very muddy.
The sources of the Lawe
The Lawe is a river that rises in Rocourt-en-l’Eau, a hamlet of Magnicourt-en-Comté.
This short walk of around 7.5 km is perfect for families and their canine companions.
You’ll discover the village of Magnicourt-en-Comté, its12th-century church, its wooded surroundings and its paths.
There are a few hills but nothing insurmountable.
Mont de La Comté
This hike takes you to Mont de La Comté, where the view is well worth seeing. You may be lucky enough to spot some roe deer on the edge of the surrounding woods.
You will pass through the pretty village of La Comté with its waterfall, old mill and beautiful church.
The upper woodlands of Bouvigny-Boyeffles as seen from the tall mast
Why ‘the upper undergrowth’? Because this walk takes place along the ridge of Notre Dame de Lorette (without actually going all the way there). The walk starts at the Bouvigny-Boyeffles TV transmission mast, the third-tallest structure in France at 305 metres. The view of it alone is an attraction in itself, as you’ll be parked about fifteen metres from the base – it’s quite dizzying. Even the first few metres offer a panoramic view of the mining basin.
The lark from Rivière
This walk starting from Rivière will take you through the plains and woods towards L’Alouette before returning via the Fossé de Berles and the Fossé à l’Eau. You can admire Saint-Vaast Church, a listed historic monument.

Randonnée agréable dans les bois et les champs. De belles rencontres avec la nature.
The Motte de Notre-Dame de Lorette trail
A very beautiful walk starting from Marqueffles, in the commune of Bouvigny-Boyeffles, leading to Notre-Dame de Lorette.

La véranda depuis Bouvigny-Boyeffles

Le Bois de Mont (short version)
Lots of paths, a beautiful crossing of the Bois (with decent tracks) and a beautiful view as you reach the plateau (but frequent fog in autumn).
2021: I've gone back to the original route, which is more pleasant.
The source of the Lawe from Bajus
This hike will take you from the plains to the woods via Thieuloye and Rocourt en l'Eau, where the Lawe river has its source. Bajus was a village where French troops rested before going to the front during the First World War
The horsetails of Bajus
A walk between Ternois and Artois, taking you past the villages of La Thieuloye, Dieval, Ourton, Beugin and La Comté. You’ll be walking mainly on paths, some of which may be muddy in wet weather.
