The cliffs at Le Tréport are not so famous as Etretat, but the town boasts a free funicular ride, wonderful views over the town and bay, cliff walks and a seafood covered market. It's about 2h drive away from Le Havre.
Where else in the world do you get to ride in a free funicular lift ? Only right here at Le Treport in France.
2ndly, you get to operate it yourself : Press Monter to go up or Descendre to go down. The lift can probably fit about 8 people and the lift ride takes only a few seconds.
3rdly, you get a wonderful view over Treport, the bay and the cliffs at the other side.
4thly, you also get to walk on the cliffs. It's flat, on grass and great to feel the breeze and enjoy the sunlight as you walk.
Finally, for those who drive, just park for free at the big parking outside the seafood covered market and stroll over to the funicular.
For those adventurous people, walk up 365 steps to the top. The starting point is at the left end of the road when you face the funicular.
La Poissonnerie Municipale (Seafood covered market)
100 Quai François 1er, 76470 Le Tréport, France

NB : This market's seafood is not as fresh and cheap as the one we prefer in Le Havre.
