Located to the south of a highly urbanised and densely populated area, the site of Cap d'Alprech offers up the contrasting image of a "little Celtic end of the earth". Bounded to the north by the Cap d'Alprech, which rises to an altitude of 50 m, the cliff is cut off to the south by the Ningles creek, surrounded by wet meadows lined with dry-stone walls. Recent history has disrupted this harmony: various blockhouses recall the strategic importance of this high point overlooking the bay of Boulogne. From the trail, you can admire a breath-taking view of the sea and the white sandy coves dotted along the site.
