Cliffs of Escalles and Wissant

Highlight • Natural Monument

A steep, bikeable trail leads down to the beach below the towering white cliffs. A Blockhaus in good condition sits along a sidetrail in the cliffs high above the water level. As the beach faces Nordwest, summers have great sunsets.

Cape Blanc-Nez

Highlight • Viewpoint

The rocks, with their cracks and small caves in the calcareous wall, provide an important nesting site for numerous bird species such as jackdaws, house martins, fulmars, kestrels, gulls, terns and herring gulls. As part of a renaturation project in 2006, a section of the asphalt road leading to the summit and the parking spaces there were completely removed. Instead, a parking lot about 300 meters inland was significantly expanded.

The Cap Blanc-Nez War Memorial (Dover Patrol Monument) is a major war memorial erected on the cliffs of Cap Blanc-Nez, near Sangatte. It honours the British naval forces and the Dover Patrol, a key unit of the Royal Navy that secured the Straits of Dover during the First and Second World Wars.
