Noyon to Compiègne – Oise Gravel Tour

04:18

66.6km

400m

Gravel riding

This stage of the Oise Gravel Tour can be completed independently in one day. From Noyon station, take the time to stroll between the Notre-Dame cathedral and the Jean Calvin museum, before following the Canal du Nord to the peaceful port of Pont-l’Évêque.

You then reach the Ourscamp-Carlepont forest, a vast oak forest crossed by smooth tracks. On the edge, the remains of the Ourscamp abbey, a 12th-century jewel, emerge. The route heads towards Carlepont, then the Touvent plateau, marked by the First World War: the Tracy-le-Mont necropolis keeps its memory alive.

The Laigue forest, then that of Compiègne, offer long peaceful stretches. In Longueil-Annel, the Cité des Bateliers museum recalls the river life of the Oise. Further on, make way for emotion with the Armistice clearing of 1918, before getting as close as possible to the Beaux Monts viewpoint, with its superb view of the Château de Compiègne.

The stage ends with a gentle descent towards the town and its SNCF station, the final point of this journey steeped in history.

Notre-Dame de Noyon Cathedral

Highlight • Religious Site

The complex of buildings surrounding Notre-Dame Cathedral is one of the earliest examples of Gothic architecture. You can admire the cathedral's rich liturgical furnishings, the elegant canons' residences, the remains of the episcopal chapel, and the chapter library, one of the oldest in Europe. You'll also discover the history of Noyon, the ancient episcopal city that witnessed the coronation of Charlemagne and the birth of John Calvin. The cathedral chapter of Noyon is a true treasure trove of art and history that will delight both the eyes and the mind.

Notre-Dame d'Ourscamp Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

This enchanting place exudes history. It features dilapidated abbey ruins, one wing of the magnificent Baroque façade still intact, and the other half with bullet holes from the 20th-century World Wars. The beauty of the original Romanesque-Gothic buildings is accentuated by the spacious park. An idyll well worth a visit!

Lock of Longueil Annel,

Highlight • Structure

Here we find a magnificent lock which regulates the flow of water from the side canal to the Oise. You can have a better view of the canal if you take the pedestrian bridge that allows you to cross the watercourse. To your cameras!

Located along the canal in Longueil-Annel, the Cité des Bateliers (Watermen's City) showcases the history of boatmen and local river life. The museum, housed in a former boatman's house and barges, showcases the daily lives of families who lived by the rhythm of navigation.

Clairière de l'Armistice

Highlight • Historical Site

The Clairière de l'Armistice, or Armistice Place, is a clearing deep in the Compiègne Forest in northern France. It was here that the armistice ending World War I was signed on 11 November 1918. The signing took place in a railway carriage belonging to Marshal Foch, who had been brought to this remote location especially for discretion.
