En famille

The Marais des Cavins (marshes) at Bourdon, in the Somme valley, are perfect for enjoying the great outdoors and getting some fresh air! There are 17 hectares of marshes with reed beds, willows and waterlilies. a 3 km trail of compacted sand, ideal for pushchairs and the bikes/scooters of older children. The marshes in this valley inspired the French author, Hector Malot, to write his children's novel "En famille" (Nobody's Girl, in English translation).
