La Canteraine is a park located near Lille, France. Located between the municipalities of Haubourdin and Emmerin, it is known for its preserved meadows and small forests. The park is part of the larger Deule Park and is home to diverse flora and fauna, including 7 different species of amphibians. In the early 2010s, nearly 60,000 regional trees were planted in the park to recreate a wild area and protect important natural water resources. The park is also a paradise for frogs.

Deûle Canal

Highlight • River

The Canal de la Deûle is one of the oldest canals in northern France and connects the river Scarpe at Douai with the river Lys at Deûlémont, near the Belgian border. The canal is approximately 34.8 km long and has 3 locks. Most of the canal is included in the high-quality Dunkerque-Escaut waterway, and the remaining section through the port of Lille is often considered a branch of the main route, hence the alternative names Liaison or Antenne Bauvin-Lys.

Parc de la Deûle Boardwalk and Nature Trails

Highlight • Trail

The Parc de la Deûle is an area of 350 hectares whose ambition, in the medium term, is to create a link between the Lille metropolis and the mining area. The park was designed by landscape architects Jacques SIMON, Yves HUBERT and Jean-Noël CAPART. Work started in 1996. Within this park, a space of 23 hectares is dedicated to “dream nature”, the garden dreams of citizens of the metropolis. This is Mosaic, the garden of cultures. The rehabilitation of the site started in 2001 and the development of the gardens in 2003.
