Other walks in the area
Circular route between Fouquereuil and Bruay
Long route through the urban area. Follow the Lawe and then the Brette to reach the Miner's Monument in Bruay. To return, head to Cité 4 in Bruay before reaching the Bois des Dames by following the PR® du Bois des Dames. Crossing the woods takes you to the slag heap before leading you to Emmaüs. From there, the return journey is via the Bois de la Sablière. There are many paths and "bus lanes" for a route that is passable even in wet weather.
La Buissière - Ourton loop following the Biette, then the Lawe
This is a long walk in an urban area, but 90% of it is on paths. Start at the old bridge and its steps, then follow the Biette (a beautiful footbridge restored last year) to Ourton. Next, climb back up (unfortunately on the road) before descending to Beugin. Follow another bridge to the Divion Viaduct. There, a slightly tricky descent takes you back to the banks of the Lawe. Follow it first on the left bank, then on the right bank before following the bus route. And to finish in style, the Bois de la Volville, with a nice climb at the end.
Two woods, a slag heap and a charterhouse to digest it all
Up to the entrance to the Bois des Dames, the route is much the same as this walk (there aren’t many options in the Bois de Roquelaure), but for the section through the Bois des Dames, I took different paths. The final stretch passes behind Emmaüs before reaching the Chartreuse des Dames and joining the Bois des Sablières.It’s a long, winding route, with hardly any tarmac and a significant elevation gain; whilst there are no major hills, there’s a succession of ascents and descents, which makes it more tiring . Very difficult in wet weather.Use ofthe Visorando app is strongly recommended.
From one woodland to another, starting from Labeuvrière and passing by slag heap no. 12
The route takes you through the two woods of Lapugnoy: Roquelaure, with its easy paths, followed by the Bois des Dames, where the trails can be very wet. I’ve tried to stick to the lesser-known paths, particularly in the Bois des Dames, which makes for a route that’s quite difficult to follow. I recommend using the Visorando app. Note: on OpenStreetMap, the paths are clearly marked.
The slag heap is very beautiful in spring when it’s covered in flax.
The Bois des Dames starting from Labuissière
This walk, starting from Labuissière, will take you to the Bois des Dames via the castle. You will then follow the Lawe river and cross part of the Bois des Dames with its centuries-old oak trees and rich biodiversity.
Circular walk around the keep and the La Buissière slag heap
This walk, starting from Bruay-Labuissiere, will take you through the Bois des Dames and up the slag heap. You’ll follow the River Lawe, all along very good wooded paths with a few gentle climbs.
The Two Rivers Trail in Fouquières-lès-Béthune
The two rivers trail from Fouquières-lès-Béthune to Fouquereuil takes you along the Blanche to the Annezin marsh, then along the Lawe before walking above the water under a railway line!
This route will take you to the Fouquereuil storage slag heap (the Terril de la Cuisse Maraune) where you can enjoy a superb 360° panorama from the top. The return journey is through the fields.
