Very beautifully designed, small nature park on the headland "Cap Gris Nez". In good weather, you can see as far as the chalk cliffs of Dover from the vantage points. There are various tours and well-made display boards explain the respective sight and the history of it. The car park is free of charge, an information board and overview is located at the entrance to the site.

Running
Discover the wild beauty of nature by running along the cliffs and trails of Cap Gris-Nez. This cape is the closest point to France and England, offering stunning views of the Strait of Dover and the White Cliffs of Dover. You can run on the coastal path or on the beach, depending on the tide. Brace yourself for wind and hills, and enjoy the fresh air and scenery.

At this beatiful viewpoint you can see the white cliffs of England on the other side of the sea.
You are not allowed to cycle there so keep in mind that you will need to walk a couple of hundred meters with your cycling shoes to get to the viewpoint.
