Vendeuil-Caply walks

A short walk around Boves to get a glimpse of the rolling, wooded landscape of the Picardy countryside. You will then discover the marshes of the Saint-Ladre pond nature reserve.

The Hez-Froidmont forest was created in 1869 by combining the Hez (1,413 ha) and Froidmont (259 ha) state forests with the Saint-Lucien, Saint-Thibault and La Verrière reserves, which were originally owned by the church. Covering a single area of 2,796 hectares (with the exception of the Belle Fille valley, which is 100 metres away from the forest and represents a small 10-hectare canton), it stretches 9 kilometres from east to west and 6 kilometres from north to south.

Discover two contrasting natural environments: the dry limestone grasslands covering the hill of Mont César and the marshes below. A varied route through the forest, poplar groves and fields.

This hike takes you along a section of the GR®123 between Clairy-Saulchoix and Saveuse. This pleasant route crosses varied landscapes combining fields and forests. The route follows a section of the long-distance hiking trail linking Contes (Pas-de-Calais) to Carlepont (Oise), and offers a detour to the commune of Ferrières, with its peaceful forest and shaded paths, ideal for a nature break on the outskirts of Amiens.

A lovely walk through pastures, hedgerow paths and forests of many different species, including some beautiful large trees, some of which are certainly centuries old. It is also an opportunity to pass through two beautiful villages with pretty half-timbered houses, often brightly coloured and with flower-filled gardens.

This is a pleasant walk to discover one of the most beautiful villages in France, Gerberoy. The walk mainly follows paths along the edge of forests or through woodland, making it a peaceful walk.

A beautiful hike with wooded areas, plains, quarries where stones were extracted for the construction of Notre-Dame de Paris, many ponds, two wash houses, two chapels, the church of Saint-Vaast, the Rivière le Théroin (a tributary of the Oise), and the Flandre stream.

This is a beautiful walk at the entrance to the Oise, in the valleys between Anserville and Fosseuse. The walk takes you through fields and woods. The region is surprising in this area, with its gently sloping hills and succession of small woods and fields. It offers a variety of very pleasant views.

This hike is long enough to showcase all aspects of the Halatte forest: tall beech and oak trees, coppice with oak trees and lime trees in the undergrowth, and large cultivated clearings, the largest of which is Fleurines. Most of the route follows the beautiful forest roads that were built several centuries ago.

A fairly easy hike from Aumont-en-Halatte with a slight elevation gain, in the Halatte National Forest, skirting the village of Fleurines. Two beautiful viewpoints along the route, best enjoyed in summer when the weather is warm.

This loop, starting from Villers-Saint-Frambourg, takes place in the Forêt d'Halatte. The paved forest roads follow the dirt tracks. We climb Mont Pagnotte via the south face. After a long descent, we go around the mountain to climb it again, but this time via the north face. The ascent is less difficult as it follows a beautiful path. After a long descent, we return to our starting point.

Hike in a forest massif located on a hill and composed mainly of beech and oak trees. The southern and northern edges offer beautiful panoramic views of the Valois agricultural plateau and the Oise Valley.

This hike allows you to discover the beautiful Halatte Forest with its oak and beech trees and to get close to some of its curiosities. They all bear witness to human presence and activity since the dawn of time. Along the route, on the heights of Mont Pagnotte, beautiful views await you.

Starting from Place de la Foulerie in Chaumont-en-Vexin, this is a pleasant walk with no particular difficulties. You can explore (with dry feet) the wetland area crossed by the Troësne, which was channelled by the digging of the Marquemont Canal from 1784 onwards. You will walk along the Bois de la Brosse, where there is a fountain where you can refresh yourself and fill your water bottle before continuing towards the hamlet of Le Vivray. With all your senses alert, you will be able to pick up on all the signs of the diversity that this wet plain has to offer.

Discover the town of Chaumont-en-Vexin, a small town of character, by following in the footsteps of Jacquot, the little boy from Chaumont who walked around it a thousand times in the 1950s. After a long absence, he returns to the place of his childhood and invites you to follow him.

This walk will introduce you to this small town, which has just been awarded the title of "Petite Cité de Caractère" (Small Town of Character). Before leaving the town hall, where the tour starts, discover the Raymond Pillon Museum of Archaeology and Palaeontology and its rich collection. The town, crossed by numerous waterways, is centred around the Place de la Foulerie, so named because, in the past, flax harvested in the surrounding countryside was fulled there. Throughout the tour, you will have numerous views of the magnificent 16th-century church, which resembles a small cathedral. If you wish, you can take this tour with a guide on thethird Sunday of each month at 3pm.

The destination of this hike is an imposing Neolithic dolmen and a small menhir. The hike takes you through fields and woods, with the charming village of Chambors halfway along the route.

On the way back, you will visit the Chapel of the House of the Sisters of Compassion to admire a 13th-century bas-relief before strolling through the small cemetery of the Sisters adjoining it.
