La Canardière

Highlight • Settlement

Clean and uncrowded road, bordering ponds. Perfect for connecting the towpath between Camon and Lamotte-Brebière.

At each passage why there was a cross of Gr under the bridge.
The answer, the Gr goes to the right before the bridge and then passes above to cross the sum. The real passage is not on the towpath.
So possibility of cutting by taking the bridge to arrive at Lamotte-Brebière.

Lamotte-Brebière Locks

Highlight • Structure

The Lamotte-Brebière lock was built in 1870 to regulate the flow of water and prevent flooding of neighboring hortillonnages. The lock is located in a magnificent setting, surrounded by greenery and wildlife. You can also visit the historic lock keeper's house, transformed into a cultural café where you can eat and attend artistic events.

Towpath Along the Somme River

Highlight • Trail

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.

Les Étangs de la Barette

Highlight • Lake

The Etangs de la Barette are a natural site of approximately 40 hectares located in the communes of Corbie and Vaux-sur-Somme. The site is made up of large artificial ponds which were dug by the monks of Corbie Abbey to serve as a fishpond, then used for peat extraction in the 19th century. You can enjoy the view of the water and wetlands, and observe the diverse flora and fauna that populate the site. You will also be able to see the Blue Fountains, water springs that appear blue due to the reflection of sunlight on the chalky bottom. The Etangs de la Barette are an ideal destination for nature lovers who wish to discover a rich and preserved environment.

2nd outings with the rc520 700x38 tire and suspended seat tube.
Slightly sore in the butt lol, pretty landscape along the Somme up to Vaux sur Somme, well submerged under water in places.
