COMET LINE ESCAPE ROUTE- 10TH - 16TH SEPT - FRANCE

Retrace the Path of a WW2 Heroine

Join SOE Expeditions for an unforgettable journey as we follow the remarkable footsteps of Andrée de Jongh, the Belgian heroine who led the Comet Line during World War 2. Her courageous network helped rescue hundreds of Allied soldiers and airmen trapped behind enemy lines in Nazi-occupied Europe.


On this exclusive expedition, you will walk the same 3 day perilous paths across 50km that Andrée and her network took across the Pyrenees, visiting key sites along the way. You’ll have the chance to participate in local remembrance parades and celebrations, paying tribute to the heroes of the resistance who risked everything for freedom.


A Legacy of Courage and Innovation


Founded in 1941, the Comet Line was a secret organization that operated under the radar of Nazi forces, providing a daring escape route for Allied soldiers and airmen stranded in German-occupied Belgium and France. Andrée de Jongh, known by her code name "Dédée," was the driving force behind the network, which led airmen across dangerous terrain to safety in neutral Spain.


What set the Comet Line apart was its creative approach to hiding airmen. Rather than relying on traditional safe houses, Andrée and her network utilized unconventional locations, including farms, convents, and private homes, making it much harder for the Gestapo to infiltrate the network.


This is more than a trip—it’s a chance to honour a powerful legacy of resistance and courage. Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of this exceptional adventure with SOE Expeditions.  

An Epic 7 Day Adventure Awaits

This September, join us as we retrace the remarkable journey of Andrée de Jongh, the Belgian heroine who led the Comet Line during WW2.

Her courageous network helped rescue over 300 Allied pilots who were smuggled to safety. 


In total between 700 to 900 people were helped or hidden.

Follow her path, visit key sites, and take part in local remembrance parades and celebrations, honouring the legacy of resistance heroes.

Don't miss the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of legends and pay tribute to those who risked everything for freedom. 


Now, you can retrace the heroic route of Andrée de Jongh and follow in the footsteps of those who risked everything to fight against oppression during WW2.
