Description of the walk

Starting point: Bouret-sur-Canche, a good car park near the school.

(S/E) Head south to join the D339. Follow it for a few metres to the left and take the first street on the right. Cross the old railway line and you’ll reach a Fork in the road.

(1) Turn left to cross the Grand Hairon: a long, gentle climb through the fields. The path eventually turns right to reach a T-junction.

(2) Turn left and you’ll reach a junction.

(3) Continue straight ahead along a wide grassy, or rather very grassy, path to join the D84.

(4) Follow it for a few metres to the right, then turn left and immediately left again to take the old railway line (barrier). Stay on this lovely, well-shaded path.

(5) At the junction with the D53 (detached house, barriers), carry on straight ahead, still following the old railway line.

(6) At the next junction (barrier), leave the railway line and turn right onto a small road leading to the D339. Ignore a path on the left and continue to a junction,

(7) Turn left onto the GR® 121, which you will follow for quite some time. You’ll reach a small road branching off to the right.

(8) Follow this small road until you reach the D339. Cross it and continue straight on (GR®). A little further on, take a path on the left (GR®) and reach Rue de l’Église. Follow it to the right, pass in front of the church and reach a T-junction.

(9) Follow the D84 to the left (GR®®). After a few metres, turn left withthe GR®® onto a lovely ascending path which will take you to the Notre-Dame de Bon Secours Chapel (with a pretty statue inside).

(10) A few metres past the chapel, take a grassy path on the left that descends steeply. You’ll reach a small road which you follow to the right as far as Bouret Church.

(11) At the church, turn left and cross the Canche to return to the car park (S/E).

Notes

An easy walk, but you should still be well equipped

Note: this walk can easily be combined with the “From La Canche to Bois de Mortagne” walk, creating a route of around 23 km.

Near the bridge (after the ‘11 ’) there is a small playground where it’s lovely to have a picnic. It has been refurbished and there are two tables under a shelter (let’s hope they don’t suffer the same fate as the previous ones, which some brainless idiots ‘had fun’ throwing into the river!!!!)

Worth a visit

Always be cautious and plan ahead when you're outdoors. Visorando and the author of this route cannot be held responsible for any accidents occurring on this route.

A very beautiful walk, I recommend it – I don't find many as interesting as this in the region – there is a bit of flat ground at the start, then a descent along the old railway line in the shade – crossing the river and more woodland...

A very beautiful walk between mountains and valleys. We did it backwards, starting at point nine, and easily cut off at point four because it was really hot that day. Note that you can get something to eat at the chip shop near the campsite close to point seven (open on Friday evenings, Saturday lunchtime and evenings, and Sunday lunchtime only).

Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience.

This is a route that is well worth the detour! We like to combine pleasure with exercise: this beautiful hike takes 2 hours and 5 minutes. The old railway track is a really pleasant route.

Just towards the end of the route, take the path downhill to the left (do not leave the GR, which has changed its route). Otherwise, everything is fine.

A very beautiful hike, with little tarmac and few major roads. It could be FFCT-certified and therefore signposted, although the explanations are already very clear.

An easy start on good paths, then a passage along the Sentier des Culs Trempés (which unfortunately is no longer maintained) before a beautiful climb up to Canettemont.

⚑Departure from Ligny-sur-Canche (Pas-de-Calais)
In the Riez de Nœux-les-Auxi, there is a beautiful walk along the Canche in Boubers and Ligny. With the climb up the Ravin des Cavernes, you really feel like you are in another world (even more so now, with the final chaos). The route becomes very difficult in wet weather in the Riez and the ravine.

⚑Departure from Boubers-sur-Canche (Pas-de-Calais)
A pleasant walk starting from Boubers-sur-Canche, with its castle and St Leger’s Church, which, passing through La Canche, leads to the Vacquerie-le-Boucq plateau, skirting the Bois Madame, then descends along the Bois des Avents back to Boubers-sur-Canche.

⚑Departure from Barly (Somme) (Somme)
I used the start of an old marked trail (Sentier de la Fontaine) which, like many in this area, has disappeared. The route takes you through the Bois des Bouloies and, after passing through Occoches, the return journey follows wide farm tracks. You can have a picnic in the square. You can follow this up with the “Les pâtis au départ de Barly” walk for a total of 20 km.

⚑Departure from Sars-le-Bois (Pas-de-Calais)
A long route that is ideal when the weather is less favourable.A few small roads (most of which have grass growing in the central reservation), some fairly easy country lanes and a very beautiful section leading down to Le Cauroy.

⚑Departure from Sus-Saint-Léger (Pas-de-Calais)
A beautiful route around Lucheux, best done in dry weather, as theGR®124is in very poor condition (and poorly marked!) in the forest. You may see deer and wild boar. This route replaces the old one, the western section of which is now impassable.

⚑Departure from Herlin-le-Sec (Pas-de-Calais)
Le Pronay, a hamlet of Ramecourt with its ‘Cathedral’ (3), so named by one of our members: it is in fact a chapel. You’ll reach it by crossing the Bois de Pronay. For the return journey, follow a section of the old railway line from Saint-Pol to Frévent and, to finish, you’ll pass in front of Sains Castle. A largely shaded walk.
