Mont de Couple

Highlight • Summit

Mont de Couple is the highest point in Boulonnais, at an altitude of 163 m. Along the way, you can admire the diverse flora and fauna of the nature reserve, as well as the remains of German bunkers from the Second World War. At the top, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking views of the coast and countryside. You will also be able to see on your right the majestic Cap Blanc-Nez, which is slightly lower than Mont de Couple.

Fort d'Ambleteuse

Highlight • Historical Site

This fort is the only one left of the seven that defended the coast of Boulogne.
In 169, the English king James II, chased away by his subjects, came ashore in the already silted up harbour. When Napoleon planned an invasion of England, part of his fleet was located here. From the beach you have a view of the entrance to the port of Boulogne and in clear weather even of the English cliffs.
