South of Valenciennes, the succession of slag heaps in the Raismes-Saint-Amand-Wallers forest offers a dream terrain for mountain biking!

Bridge

Highlight • Other

Railway line cycle path to Valenciennes, not always asphalted. The unpaved sections are pretty stupid after rain. Some of the barriers are poorly placed.
The bridge is old, but it holds up..
