Vieil-Moutier walks
The Desvres Hill
A lovely walk alternating between footpaths and small country lanes in the Haut Pays d’Artois, offering rural scenery in an area dominated by livestock farming and pastures. The area has a rugged terrain and high altitudes.
Trou du Charme Trail
Lovely family outing in the Desvroise countryside, on small paved country roads.Passes close to streams, forests, villages and farms.
Walk through the Artois Heights
A winding route offering superb views of the Artois heights and the Bléquin valley.
Fiery hills in Val de Course
A pleasant hike starting from Bezinghem and passing near Zoteux, Course and the centre of Doudeauville. Much of the route is on well-maintained paths. It alternates between countryside and small villages, as well as crossing Doudeauville on a road that runs pleasantly alongside the Course. The hills add a reasonable amount of elevation to this family hike.
From Wismes to the Bois d'Esquerdes via the Montagne d'Elnes
A long route with very little tarmac and a superb climb.
There are also a few long straight stretches through the fields that will delight many!
Late July 2020:
- the section between points 6 and 7 is in excellent condition.
- at point 13, after the copse, you cross a maize field for about fifty metres (the path is clearly marked) before finding the track.
In the footsteps of Samer
Enjoy varied landscapes in the heart of the Samer countryside, with nature, local heritage and a bucolic atmosphere.
Discover the heritage of Samer
A friendly walk to discover Samer's heritage: its iconic sites, typical landscapes and local treasures, combining nature and history. The route is easily accessible for people with pushchairs and/or pets.
Vallée de la Course and the lost valleys
A very pretty tour around the villages of Beussent, Montcavrel and Enquin-sur-Baillon. Very varied landscapes with small roads and farm tracks. An easy but challenging hike. You will have the chance to see different aspects of the Course valley, with its cress farms still in operation. Pleasant picnic stop in Enquin sur Baillon (shaded table) or Beussent, near the river. The departure point is Enquinehaut because the descent to the Course is splendid. You will see pretty lost valleys.
An uphill battle
It's a route that will delight altitude enthusiasts (Carto exploreur and the Visorando app suggest it's as high as 500m). What's more, the views are stunning.
Route slightly modified in November 2019.
All trails are very good as of May 14, 2020 (even if some are very grassy).
From Turkey to Fond Breton (in less than 10 km!)
A short but fairly strenuous route with a steep hill and some very grassy paths.
On 12/08/2025: the start of the trail is once again very overgrown (brambles and nettles). It's passable but it's best to wear trousers or good gaiters and, of course, bring a walking stick or even a pair of secateurs.
5 woods and some steep slopes
A very hilly route over the Artois heights.
A great sporting outing with beautiful scenery.
From Bras de Bronne to L’Embrienne
Same starting point as for the “5-bois-et-quelques-raidillons” hike, but this route is a bit longer, with a decent climb, and avoids walking along the D129.
I think the app is essential, especially as the GR® markings are very faint (you might even wonder if this legendary GR® still exists?).
The Bois d'Elloo
During this route, walkers will pass through the Tournehem National Forest, which covers 988 hectares. They will see old windmills and the Hem valley.This is a signposted trail maintained by the Pays de Saint-Omer Urban Community.
The Saint-Louis Chapel from Tournehem-sur-la-Hem
A lovely walk through woods and hedged farmland to the pretty Chapelle Saint-Louis. It's a signposted trail run by the Communauté d'Agglomération du Pays de Saint-Omer.
From Moringhem to Quelmes
A pleasant route, with the possibility of a pleasant break at the beautiful Quelmes café.
On the plateau between the Lys and the Aa
A long route with a significant elevation gain on paths that are generally in very good condition.
The Créquy Woods
A long route with virtually no roads, based on three short hiking trails: the Maury, the Têtards and the Fréniaux.It is best to walk this route during a dry period, as the paths can be quite rough in wet weather.Three-quarters of the walk takes place on the edge of or within the woods.
From Landrethun-le-Nord to Caffiers via the Stinkal quarries
A very nice walk, with no difficulties, through fields, a stretch of forest, the Bois de Beaulieu, where there used to be an abbey, and the discovery of the Stinkal quarry site: very careful during the week when there is a lot of lorry traffic. Unfortunately, you used to be able to take a small path along the railway line, which you took on the site of the quarries. Access to this path is now strictly forbidden, which means that you have to finish your walk on the tarmac from the quarries. This in no way detracts from the charm of the start of the walk.
The Lady of the Wolves Trail
South of Audruicq, discover the Brédenarde, a landscape of hedgerows, fruit trees and wooded countryside.Starting from Zutkerque or Polincove, take the ‘Dame aux Loups’ trail, named in honour of the Baronessde Draëck; you can admire her château, the first hills of Artois and follow the winding course of the Hem: the river of mills.
