Côte d'Opale walks

A very pleasant walk with magnificent views of Wissant beach, Cap Gris Nez, Cap Blanc Nez and the English coastline.

Easy hike in two loops, discovering the Baie de la Canche and its nature reserve, through dune woods with lovely views over the bay and Le Touquet in the first part, then through marshes and the bay, with access to the beach. Return through a wild cherry wood.

An invigorating seaside walk to the heights of Sangatte, via the cliffs of Cap Blanc-Nez. A walk combining nature and culture, in a place that has been awarded the Grand Site de France label since 2011. Numerous relics of the Second World War bear witness to the past, amid breathtaking scenery.

A loop from the old fort of Ambleteuse to Cap Gris Nez: go along the cliffs by the sea and return inland via the remains of blockhouses.

Located in a protected natural area, the Fartz trail, dotted with bird observatories, lets you discover all the flora and fauna of Wissant bay.

Start on the country side, across a field with Cap Blanc Nez in the distance behind you and the English cliffs on your right, in fine weather. Halfway along, take a break on the beach. Return to the top of the cliffs, where you'll appreciate all the notches and the panoramic view of Cap Gris Nez.26/06/2023 The hike has been modified because the passage is forbidden by the hole at Quette and the crossing of the Châtelet stream cannot be made anymore via the dunes.

The trails are well-marked. All through the year, they're accessible, and this walk allows you to discover our beautiful northern beaches. Itinerary to be adapted, some areas may be off-limits, see notices .

A surprising mix of landscapes: a deceptively medieval castle, deciduous and coniferous forest then reaching the top of a dune that overlooks the beach. Most of the walk is in the shade, and the beach is ideal for a picnic.

A beautiful walk taking you through several natural environments: dunes, forests, beaches and cliffs.

A feeling of the beginning of the world on this immense beach on the Opal Coast.Get there by bus, then on foot via the GR®120. A real treat.

Come and take a stroll in the Stella dunes, a very fragile Natura 2000 listed natural environment, to be explored with respect. Most of this trail is covered in sand. You'll discover three types of dunes (embryo, white and grey), with lovely panoramic views from the top. You'll walk alongside the sea and discover Bois Joly. A very fine hike, albeit a little physically demanding.
