Departure from Flers Bourg, direction the urban park. Then to the left of Lac du Héron. Direction Hem and follow the expressway. Arrival in Lannoy. Then fork towards the industrial zone and take a path towards the canal. Then turn left at the canal towards Roubaix. Then leave the canal near Hem and go up towards the center. Then return by the lake of Héron.

Country path along the Marque

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Starting from the Heron Park and its nature reserve, descend towards the marshes of Fretin, Templeuve, and Peronne on a magnificent, beautifully landscaped path.
Passable by all types of bike (a road bike in my case), this trail offers a myriad of bucolic scenes, from kingfishers fishing to the slow grazing of nearby cows, rabbits, and horses.
Nature lovers and bird lovers, let yourself be carried away, for you are about to experience a truly beautiful moment.
