Tour of the Glisy ponds

Highlight (Segment) • Other

The trail that loops around the Glisy ponds is very pleasant, alternating between dirt paths and passages on wooden slats. Don't forget that this is a quiet area reserved for fishermen!

Towpath Along the Somme River

This old towpath offers beautiful views and a relaxing calm. There are no more draft horses there as in the past, but only a few cyclists and barges.

As indicated on the sign at the lock house, there are now services available for cyclists, such as a charging point for e-bikes and even a place to camp. Given that the towpath …
