The coastal bike route is part of the No. 4 EuroVeloroute between Kiev in Ukraine and Roscoff in Brittany. It crosses 7 countries over more than 4,000 km. 30 km of this route travel between Sangatte and Wimereux where you can admire the landscapes of the Site des Deux-Caps. Cycling is safe here, on side roads with light traffic and farm tracks shared with walkers and horse riders.
