A lovely walk.
Point 1: Take the dirt track on the left and, after 300 metres, take a path on the right through the vegetation to go down the embankment (then, opposite, the RD109 leading into Hallivillers)
Between points 4 and 5: The path along the Hallivillers woodland disappears completely at one point; you’ll be walking between the field and the woodland, but it’s passable.
Occasional signposting.

some lovely views of the Picardy countryside
There’s just one path along the Hallivillers woods that’s not very well maintained, but it’s still passable

Thank you, ALAINOIS
This old walking route would be worth updating.
In any case, signposting is not within our remit; we have no control over it.

With virtually no signposting, we got lost once despite having the guide and the map.
It’s impossible to do this walk without them!
Please note: Rue du Fort does not exist, or no longer does; it should be replaced with Rue de la Place.
Only of moderate interest unless you enjoy walking through fields.

This route is impossible to complete because the paths have not been maintained for a VERY long time and there are no signposts.
