What to see on your Tour Depending on your route, you can pedal away in the heart of Picardy's highly varied forests and countryside; cycle alongside ponds that attract bird life, discover the dunes of Marquenterre, adventure along the tops of cliffs and go through picturesque villages. Stop whenever you like to take in the surrounding countryside, visit a fortified church or even discover the secrets of a château or a cathedral and picnic next to a wash-house or a wine grower's manor. Why not venture into one of the farms to taste some Linden honey, local cheese tart (tarte au Maroilles) or share a glass of the local aperitif: Folie Douce? Cycling in Picardy promises to be a unique experience at your pace and within the heart of nature.
