    Hiking

    Located in the heart of the Cauchois coast, Cap d'Ailly is home to a rich biodiversity. Many species of birds such as the boreal and black tit, long-eared owl or little owl.
    The landscapes of this natural site combine cliffs and greenery, with pine groves and deciduous copses. A place to relax and enjoy unspoiled nature.

    Cap d'Ailly is a remarkable natural site located in Sainte-Marguerite-sur-Mer, on the Côte d'Albâtre. It overlooks the English Channel and offers stunning views of the cliffs and the lighthouse that stands at the tip. It is a unique place that brings together different types of natural environments, such as moorland with heather and gorse, which gives it a little air of Scotland or Brittany.
    Cap d'Ailly is a property of the Conservatoire du littoral, managed by the Department of Seine-Maritime.

    The Cap d'Ailly, in addition to its chalk cliffs 30 m high, is rich in a great diversity of environments and vegetation, suitable for a diverse fauna. It is also an important ornithological site where you can see rare species (northern tit, black tit, northern fulmar, little owl, long-eared owl).
