The White Cliffs of Dover are an iconic natural feature of the English coast, overlooking the Dover Channel and France. These majestic cliffs, which reach a height of 350 feet (110 metres), have a striking appearance due to their composition of chalk with accents of black flint, deposited during the Late Cretaceous period.

You can drive straight to Dover from here. However, the footpath has steps and is very steep. A detour along Dover Castle seems to me the better option.
