    Road cycling

    By mountain bike from Olloy, take the GR along the stream by taking the path that runs alongside the first ponds on the right, until it goes up towards the ravel.
    My advice: do not try to pass the 2 small footbridges by bike :-)


    Arrived at the road which crosses the ravel before Oignies, turn right towards Regniessart, and turn right in the hollow to go down again towards Olloy on nice single tracks. Preferably with a GPS so as not to miss the place where you have to cross the stream.

    The starting point at Olloy-sur-Viroin is a stone's throw from France. This was once a Gallic fortified city. You follow the old railway that has been converted into RAVeL. You cycle through the densely wooded area of Nismes where hardwoods and conifers alternate.
    You follow the brook de Nouée, which feeds a few small ponds. There are beautiful picnic areas with barbecues.
    Your bike ride ends in Oignies-en-Thiérache, a village at an altitude of 365 meters above sea level, once known for its slate.

    A stone's throw from France, starting from Olloy-sur-Viroin, protected formerly by a Gallic oppidum, you walk along an old vicinal line converted into RAVeL through the dense forest of Nismes where alternating hardwoods and conifers.

    You walk along the stream of Nouée, which here and there feeds some small ponds that invite you to daydream around a beautiful picnic area with barbecue available for your enjoyment.
