About

A green setting in the heart of the cliffs classified as a picturesque site since 1959.
The Bois de Cise is an exceptional natural site, a small natural wood, originally wild and deserted, which became a renowned seaside resort during the Belle Époque, under the impetus of a visionary who did not shrink from any means.
This Coastal Wood was originally a wild wood and then a place for hunting in the Middle Ages. At the end of the 19th century, on the initiative of a property developer, the Bois de Cise was sold by lot and became a well-known seaside resort during the Belle Epoque
Today, it is a charming place for holidays and walks to be discovered preferably on foot along the small wooden paths and stairs that run through the site. Very pretty villas bear witness to the splendid years before the First World War
Like Victor Hugo in his time, don't forget to go to the panorama, a fantastic viewpoint from where you can discover the estuary of the Bay of the Somme.
Free and guided visit on request.
