Noyelles-sur-Mer walks

Route at the bottom of the Baie de Somme and in the marshes around Noyelles-sur-Mer.

This short walk of just under 6 km in and around Saint-Valery-sur-Somme is full of charm with its fishermen's streets lined with decorated and flower-filled houses, its sailors' calvary with views of the entire bay and the town, its quays along the Somme and its Saint-Valery Chapel, known as the Sailors' Chapel, not to mention its history with the Porte Jeanne d'Arc and numerous views of the Bay of Somme

A walk through the streets of a town with a rich history and along the banks of the Baie de Somme.

Starting from the charming village of Cahon, nestled in the Trie valley, this lovely walk will take you to Quesnoy-le-Montant before returning along pleasant paths through woods and pastures to your starting point. The inhabitants of Quesnoy-le-Montant are called Quercitains, hence the name of this walk. As for Cahon, the starting and finishing village, you will find a flour mill that is still in operation and produces flour, one variety of which is reserved for the "Avocette" baguette sold in Quesnoy-le-Montant, but also in other bakeries in the Somme. In short, this is a gastronomic and heritage walk.

This walk in the Crécy Forest will enchant you with its four majestic trees, among other things. The IGN map is highly recommended for following the route.

From Port du Hourdel, there is a coastal route that returns along the ponds and passes by the Maison des Oiseaux. Important note from one of our friends: please note that parking at Le Hourdel is subject to a charge, even in low season. However, the car park located between (3) and (4) was free when we went on our walk. It was therefore possible to start the walk from this new starting point.

Rideau: a rather local term for a hedge of copses to break the wind, which is commonly found on this hilly route in the heart of the green Vimeu region. There are some lovely stretches along the banks of the Trie and a ford near the Chaussoy manor house that is well worth admiring before tackling a steep climb through the undergrowth. This route is signposted by the local council, but this version is a shortened one.

This 20 km circuit between Abbeville and Saint-Riquier takes you to the Monflières Chapel, then the Scardon Valley, seen from above, before returning via the Traverse du Ponthieu.
