A superb circular mountain bike route starting from Calais, ideal for exploring the Opal Coast. The route alternates between urban sections, coastal paths and undulating trails with magnificent views of the sea and Cap Blanc-Nez. A few good climbs (464 m of elevation gain) provide a decent challenge without being too technical, making the route accessible to moderate-level mountain bikers. The section towards Wissant offers exceptional views. Varied terrain: fast-flowing sections, grassy paths and stony tracks. A well-balanced circular route, perfect for a lively ride lasting around 2 hours.
