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.

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

Highlight (Segment) • Other

While being on the outskirts of the city, you feel like in another universe. Whether on the side of the floating gardens, also called hortillonnages, or the peacefully flowing river, you no longer know where to look. Everyone will find in this route reasons to stroll and admire or else to practice a sporting activity far from the tumults of the city. This path being narrow in places and sometimes very busy, please respect other users, remain courteous and careful.

Ailly-sur-Somme Lockhouse

Highlight • Other

The Ailly-sur-Somme Lock Keeper's House is a former lock keeper's house transformed into a tourist office which offers bicycle and kayak rental and the sale of local products. You can follow the Vallée de Somme cycle route which runs along the Ham canal in Saint-Valery-sur-Somme. Along the way, you'll enjoy views of the water, wildlife, and scenery. You can also stop at other Maisons de la Vallée, such as Long, Froissy or Lamotte-Brebière, where you will find more information, services and activities. The Ailly-sur-Somme Lock Keeper's House is a privileged place to discover the history and nature of the Somme valley.
