The Canche (Dutch: Kwinte) is a river in France, flowing through the Pas-de-Calais department in the Hauts-de-France region. It originates in the Ternois region, within the commune of Gouy-en-Ternois. Initially flowing southeast, it then turns northwest and, after approximately 100 kilometers, empties into the English Channel as an estuary north of Étaples and Le Touquet-Paris-Plage. Here, the Canche is strongly influenced by the tides. This results in significant fluctuations in the river's water level and the formation of extensive salt marshes.

TOUQUET-PLAGE municipal forest for cycling, mountain biking and very pleasant walking 👍😉

Great bike path 👌 🚴🏻‍♂️and hiking 🥾

Please note, I started this loop, after 15 km (starting from Camiers and stopping at Pont de Briques), I changed because it was only road, I do not recommend it for mountain biking.

84 years ago, General de Gaulle made his famous appeal of 18 June from London, a moment that marked the birth of Free France, an essential resistance movement during the Second World War against the Nazi occupation. Every year in Etaples-sur-Mer, the municipality, veterans, law enforcement officers and residents come together to commemorate this historic event on the 18 June square. This emblematic square, located at the entrance to the Rue de Camiers, is decorated with several portraits paying tribute to the heroes and emblematic figures of France.

Here, there is a series of artworks and sculptures, including “BLACK MAN” by Bruno Catalano. Take a stroll and let yourself be transported by these artistic manifestations.

Jean Pierre Rives, from Toulouse, well known for his qualities as a rugby player and as former captain of the French team, is also an artist recognized in the world of sculpture. It was in Etaples that he agreed with the Mayor to make a short stopover and drop off three of his monumental works which now stand on the port and opposite the municipal tourist office.

The 15th century church, a remnant of the abbey, has an octagonal bell tower and an 11th century Romanesque baptismal font. The structure is notable for the buildings built against the church, not unusual in the Middle Ages.
