ルーイ＝ル＝プティのおすすめMTBライド

The castle is almost invisible from the towpath. Good that the highlight is positioned correctly, otherwise you will definitely miss it.

シャトー・ダプレンクールは、13世紀に建てられた中世の城で、元々は水に囲まれた四角形の要塞でした。 第一次世界大戦中に城は大部分が破壊され、今日では遺跡のみが残っています。歴史的には、16世紀のカトリック連盟において、ジャック・デユミエールがカトリック教を復興するためのマニフェストを作成した際に役割を果たしました。

Nice rest and picnic area

Very pretty descent into the undergrowth, with stairs, it leads directly below onto the Somme canal road

The Frize mountain belvedere reveals a striking view of the meanders of the Somme, in a peaceful setting that contrasts with its past marked by the battles of the First World War. Traces of this history are still visible in the trenches and shell impacts. Mentioned by Blaise Cendrars, this land rich in history today offers visitors an exceptional panorama of a landscape of marshes and ponds.

Whether on the Somme or on the canals: driving on the water is always pleasant. Water-rich area...

If you're looking for a scenic and historic route, you can try the Saint-Quentin Canal in northern France. This canal connects the Escaut, the Oise and the Somme, and crosses the watershed at a summit level 20.4 km long with two tunnels. You can run along the towpath, admire the views of the countryside and the waterway, and discover the towns and villages along the route. The canal was built in the 18th century and was an important link for trade and transport. You can learn more about its history and engineering at the Musée du Touage in Riqueval, where you can also see the electric tugboats that pull the boats through the long tunnel. The Saint-Quentin canal is an ideal destination for runners who love culture and adventure.

The path that follows the Saint-Quentin Canal from Saint-Quentin to Fontaine-lès-Clercs is approximately 13 kilometers long and will allow you to enjoy views of the water, bridges, locks and the surrounding countryside. The trail is largely flat and easy, with some gentle inclines.
