サンドゲートでの 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

The Boardwalk at Folkestone Seafront is a striking feature constructed from reconditioned railway sleepers. It stretches 800 meters across the shingle beach, linking the Harbour Arm and Station with the Lower Leas Coastal Park. This pathway not only connects various parts of the seafront but also brings visitors closer to the water’s edge. Along the route, you’ll find public artworks from the Folkestone Triennial, such as AK Dolven’s suspended bell ‘Out of Tune’ and Lubaina Himid’s ‘Jelly Mould Pavilion’. The Boardwalk is part of a larger regeneration project aimed at revitalizing the harbour area, making it a vibrant space with new restaurants, bars, cafes, and pathways. The use of old railway sleepers ties the new development to the harbour’s historical roots, while the landscaping and design ensure durability against the marine environment.

Ideal for a walk on the beach.

Opened in 1904, it still functions as a lighthouse but now has a pub/champagne bar inside.

Castle built in the reign of Henry VIII to protect England against invasion by France, and which later played a role in the Civil War and Napoleonic Wars. Now a private residence.

It is simply incredibly beautiful here!

Sandgate Castle is an artillery fort originally constructed by Henry VIII in Sandgate in Kent, between 1539 and 1540.

It winds its way up steeply, a squeaky-colored pleasure. Here you will find great little owner-managed shops, galleries and some places to stop for refreshments. A must for anyone visiting Folkestone!

It's unbelievable what has been done here from the completely dilapidated former (until 2001) ferry station: the station building has been superbly renovated, the tracks have been made into seating, one beach bar is lined up next to the next, mini-pubs or ice cream stalls are located in old wagons. .. Life takes place out here, fabulously great in summer, a highlight for railway enthusiasts at all other times
