A hidden world less than two hours from Paris, Brussels and London. Here, nature is everywhere. Wild, outstanding and unexpected in the variety of its landscapes.
The Somme is one of the cradles of Prehistoric times. Amiens is home to the biggest Gothic cathedral in France. Further to the east, the battlefields show you what the First World War was really like.
A bike ride with the family in the Picardy countryside, a ride on a sand yacht for the more energetic, before going to taste some authentic local cuisine? In the Somme, it's up to you!
The Picardy Coast stretches 60 km, from the mouth of the Bresle in the south to the mouth of the Authie in the north. Cliffs, dunes, marshes, estuaries follow on one from another, just like the villages along the way. The pleasant, undulating hinterland conceals a rich heritage. The sense of freedom you get here may last a lifetime.
In the heart of the Somme, the Amiens region is a treasure trove of nature with its many rivers and marshes and fine historical heritage: brick and stone castles and Gothic church amongst others. Amiens, the regional capital, is, in so many ways, an exciting destination.
This corner of Picardy was the scene of one of the bloodiest battles of the First World War: the battle of July 1916.
Today, the battlefields are a place for respect and contemplation. A historical tour will give you the opportunity to savour the local produce: Péronne beer, smoked eels ... and to explore the rich Somme Valley.
