It varied. The trenches stretched for more than 450 miles, from the North Sea to the Swiss border. Normally the opposing trenches were 200-400 yards apart. In some places though, they were much closer. And in other places as much as half a mile of "no man's land" separated the opposing trench systems. The average distance of 200-400 yards was well within rifle range of the enemy.
In some places, as much as a mile. In others, down to 50 yards.
Pretty close together...a matter of a few hundred feet, I believe...
