Points of Interest/Notes on this walk:
The White Cliffs of Dover have great symbolic value to the British because they face towards Continental Europe across the narrowest part of the English Channel, where invasions have historically been attempted. Until the advent of air travel, these cliffs formed the first and last sight of England for travelers. The cliffs reach up to 350 feet (110m) in places and spread east and west from the ancient (and still important) English port of Dover.
National Trails & Long Paths included on this walk:
