Le Trail des Hobbits
Come and challenge the mystical legend of the Hairy Feet on June 7th in the highlands of La Comté!
A stone's throw from the slag heaps, you will discover the first hills of Artois. Nestled in the heart of a green countryside, this small village of La Comté (900 inhabitants) will offer you many surprises with its castles, its mill and its 15th century church. Routes crossing woods, undergrowth, fields, along waterways, stony paths and ridges... And of course, you will have your share of elevation! From the top of its 189 meters, the Mont de la Comté (famous for its paragliding spot) is already laughing when you see you grimace! But what a reward afterwards, when you stop to admire these splendid landscapes and come across cows, rabbits, hares, pheasants and, for the luckiest, deer and roe deer!
The Hobbit Trail in The Shire is also an immersion in the legend of the famous "Lord of the Rings" by JRR Tolkien. Come and challenge the Hobbits and their hairy feet, unhook your precious one at the finish and enjoy a festive atmosphere with lots of entertainment!
