View of Dover Castle and the White Cliffs of Dover

Highlight • Viewpoint

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.

View of Dover Port

Highlight • Viewpoint

In the visitor and information center there is information about the "Cliff" as well as a well-stocked souvenir shop and a snack bar, and the toilet is in the building above the harbor. With the nearby parking lots, the information center is the perfect start or end point for a hike along the chalk cliffs.

Langdon Stairs & Bay

Highlight • Beach

A great alternative to the cliff path.
Narrow descent 85m.
After a 150cm high tunnel, a 7m high iron ladder leads to the beach.
At low tide, an old wreck is exposed

Viewpoint Over the White Cliffs of Dover

Highlight • Viewpoint

Made world famous by Vera Lynn in 1942, this is one of the most iconic views of these beautiful cliffs. Towering up to 361 feet (110 m) over the English Channel, you can even see over to the corresponding cliffs of France on a good day.

View of Dover Port, White Cliffs, and Dover Castle

Highlight • Beach

With the White Cliffs, the busy port, the English Channel and all manner of other interesting things, this part of Dover is quite extraordinary. Peeking out above the cliffs is the top of Dover Castle, a place well worth visiting too.

The North Downs Way ends here as well, or begins, depending on which way you hike.
