Just a few steps from the Lille urban area, this route invites you to discover a rural heritage preserved from major infrastructures. Ideal for occasional leisure cyclists, it crosses the RD 141 and RD 7, where caution is advised.
Your bike ride here takes on a historical dimension, leading you to the Garden of Remembrance. Cemeteries and memorials mark these lands forever shaped by the two World Wars. In Fromelles, the Pheasant Wood Cemetery, VC Corner, the Franco-Australian Battle Museum, as well as several German cemeteries recall the intensity of the 1914-1918 battles.
In Fleurbaix, emotions run high at the Trou Aid Post military cemetery. Established in September 1914 near a British second line trench aid post, it now houses 356 Commonwealth soldiers, of whom 207 remain unidentified.
But the Weppes is also a vast open-air Public Garden, where remarkable trees, flowered villages, parks, trails, and ponds mingle. At Aubers, the tranquility of the water bodies offers a true haven of peace to walkers seeking serenity.
Author’s recommendation
Former castellany of Lille, the territory of the Weppes extends harmoniously between the Lys and the Deûle. Never exceeding 50 meters in altitude, its beautifully wooded embankment stands out clearly in the landscape.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
