You could say that La Tour du Renard forms together with the Mont d'Ecault and the côte de Beurre a true triptych when entering Boulogne-sur-Mer. La Tour du Renard is the last one and also the easiest. However, that's no reason to skip this climb since it offers quite some variation. Part 1 winds through a suburb of Boulogne. Then, with a 180 degree turn, you enter a somewhat hidden narrow road, where the percentages suddenly exceed 10%. To cycle all the way to the top, you turn left and suddenly you have a clear view over the sea.

Je zou kunnen stellen dat La Tour du Renard samen met de Mont d'Ecault en de côte de Beurre een waar drieluik vormt bij het binnenrijden van Boulogne-sur-Mer. La Tour du Renard is daarvan de laatste en ook wel de makkelijkste. Toch is dat geen rede om deze helling dan maar over te slaan, aangezien de klim best wat afwisseling biedt. Deel 1 slingert door een buitenwijk van Boulogne. Vervolgens draai je met een 180 graden bocht een enigzins verborgen smal weggetje in, waarbij de percentages plots ruimschoots de 10% overschrijden. Om helemaal naar de top te fiesten sla je vervolgens links af en krijg je ineens vrij uitzicht over de zee.
