GR®120 Coastal Trail
From Bray-Dunes (Nord) to Le Treport (Seine-Maritime)
The GR120 long-distance hiking trail connects the Belgian border to the gateway of Normandy. Historically, this route was used by customs officers to patrol the coastline and combat smuggling. The trail offers a unique diversity of landscapes: from the vast dune systems of the north to the vertiginous cliffs of the Opal Coast. Hikers traverse exceptional natural sites, such as Cap Gris-Nez and Cap Blanc-Nez. The built heritage enriches the experience, blending the Belle Époque seaside architecture of Malo-les-Bains, fortified citadels like that of Boulogne-sur-Mer, and the poignant remains of the Atlantic Wall. Between the lively fishing ports and the bays of the Authie and Somme rivers, veritable sanctuaries for seal colonies, the trail offers a unique perspective.
Distance: 299km, Elevation maximum: 142m, Elevation minimum: 0m, Elevation gain uphill: 1217m
