    Hiking

    The Porte des Dunes is one of the four gates of the fortifications of Boulogne-sur-Mer, France. It is part of the city walls that have surrounded the old town of Boulogne-sur-Mer since Roman times. The gate is named after the dunes that used to extend to the city walls1. From the Porte des Dunes you have a beautiful view of the west side of Boulogne-sur-Mer.

    Beautifully preserved city gate. From the tower, there is a view of the new city and the sea.
