GR®123

From Contes (Pas-de-Calais) to Carlepont (Oise)

The GR®123 first traverses the Hesdin Forest, followed by agricultural plains and wooded hills, passing through the villages of Mouriez, Voisin, and Wadicourt. The trail then continues into the Somme department, offering diverse landscapes ranging from marshes to dense forests. It crosses the villages of Crécy-en-Ponthieu, Forest-l’Abbaye, Canchy, Drucat, Saint-Riquier, Famechon, Francières, Long, L’Étoile, Bourdon, Picquigny, Saveuse, Clairy-Saulchoix, Rumaisnil, L’Oeuilly, Saint-Sauflieu, Ailly-sur-Noye, Braches, Contoire, Davenescourt, Remaugies, and La Terrière. Finally, the path enters the Oise, through dense forests, deep valleys, and winding rivers, passing by the villages of Mareuil-la-Motte and Chiry-Ourscamp, with their stone houses and ancient churches, offering a glimpse into traditional rural life. Hikers can discover remnants of medieval architecture, Romanesque churches, and castles that illustrate the rich history of Picardy and the Hauts-de-France region.
