Saint-Ladre Pond

Highlight • Lake

The Etang Saint-Ladre Nature Reserve in Boves is located at the gates of Amiens, in the L’Avre Valley, a tributary of the Somme. In 1979, it became the first site in Picardy to be classified as a State Nature Reserve.
The ecological management implemented since the 1990s has made it possible to develop a complex mosaic of habitats among the most representative of alkaline peat systems, allowing the expression of characteristic, often heritage, flora and fauna.

La Canardière

Highlight • Settlement

Clean and uncrowded road, bordering ponds. Perfect for connecting the towpath between Camon and Lamotte-Brebière.

Passage over the Gr800 bridge

Highlight • Other

At each passage why there was a cross of Gr under the bridge.
The answer, the Gr goes to the right before the bridge and then passes above to cross the sum. The real passage is not on the towpath.
So possibility of cutting by taking the bridge to arrive at Lamotte-Brebière.

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.
