A magnificent hike to admire the ballet of ferries and ships of all kinds in the Strait of Dover. In good weather, you can admire the English coastline... Don't forget to take a look at the remains of the first shaft dug for the Channel Tunnel, work on which began in 1875 under Napoleon III. Access to the Mont d'Hubert car park, the starting point for this hike, is now prohibited, so you must start from the car park at the bottom of the Cap Blanc Nez obelisk.

A very nice walk, with no difficulties, through fields, a stretch of forest, the Bois de Beaulieu, where there used to be an abbey, and the discovery of the Stinkal quarry site: very careful during the week when there is a lot of lorry traffic. Unfortunately, you used to be able to take a small path along the railway line, which you took on the site of the quarries. Access to this path is now strictly forbidden, which means that you have to finish your walk on the tarmac from the quarries. This in no way detracts from the charm of the start of the walk.
