길은 좁고 가파른 경사면을 따라 이어집니다. 조심하세요, 석회암은 습한 조건에서 특히 미끄러울 수 있습니다. 하지만 적절한 계절에는 이곳에서 난초를 발견할 기회가 있으며, 그 외에도 아름다운 전망은 말할 것도 없고 다양한 종류의 동식물이 서식하는 환경입니다.

The Pipers Memorial in Longueval is a special tribute to all pipers who died during the First World War, regardless of their regiment or origin. It was unveiled on 20 July 2002 and stands in the village square, just off the Rue de Bazentin. The bronze statue, designed by Andy De Comyn, shows a piper in full uniform climbing out of a trench playing—a powerful symbol of courage and moral support for troops under fire. Plaques around the plinth list the regiments that lost pipers, and the memorial also remembers heroes such as Piper James Richardson VC, who led his battalion into the attack with his music and was later killed trying to retrieve his bagpipes. It is a rare monument that honours not only military valour but also cultural identity and tradition. A place where music and memory come together in stone and bronze.

The Piper's Memorial pays tribute to the pipers who fell during the Great War, regardless of nationality or unit. Unveiled in 2002, this 3-meter-high statue depicts one of these musicians, straddling the parapet of his trench, playing his instrument to encourage the soldiers heading into the assault.

The town of Bapaume built its first Town Hall, a symbol of the city's independence, during the 12th century. The ground floor served as a market hall for merchants. Upstairs are the council chamber and the hall where public festivals were celebrated. The current architecture of the Town Hall is similar to the previous one, built between 1583 and 1611 and destroyed on March 25, 1917 following the explosion of a time bomb left by the Germans. After a slow and dangerous mine-clearing operation, it was rebuilt in its original location in 1931 and 1932 according to the plans of Mr. Eugène Bidard. The town's coat of arms is sculpted on the keystone of the entrance door. The slate roof is decorated with pointed dormers. At the top of the tower, an outdoor gallery allows you to admire the panorama. The belfry spire peaks at 55m.

Wonderful view of the Somme Valley. The meandering of the river can be clearly observed here, a good place to take a break before heading down...

This belvedere overlooks the upper Somme valley and offers an exceptional panorama of ponds, marshes and meanders. You will appreciate the tranquility and beauty of nature while admiring the view from the Belvédère de Vaux.
