    Hiking

    Nice viewing platform with various display boards, great views of the canal and, in good weather, as far as the limestone cliffs on the Dover coast.

    Hiking

    The Cap Gris-Nez ("gray nose") is a headland on France's Channel coast, the Côte d’Opale.
    Da Cap is referred to as "gray" because the rock is gray, in contrast to Cap Blanc-Nez, which is in sight to the north, where white chalk rock can be seen.

    At the highest point there is a lighthouse that cannot be visited.

    Hiking

    The lighthouse is used as a weather station and as a lighthouse keeper school. It is not walkable.
