Walking down the road towards the ruins of Grosnez Castle, you will pass heathland dominated by gorse, bracken and heather, home to birds such as the ängspiplärka, svarthakad buskskvätta, gransångare and hämpling, whilst overhead, looking for small mammals are tornfalk, ormvråk and brun kärrhök. In spring 2025 there were at least 3 pairs of brun kärrhök resident
Upon reaching the castle, it is possible to follow paths in either direction along the cliff top. Heading south you can walk to the WWII German observation post and even to the Batterie Molkte gun emplacements, whilst heading north the route takes you to Plemont. The cliffs are home to a variety of seabirds such as havstrut, silltrut, Gråtrut, fiskmås, strandskata and korp whilst out to see sillgrissla and mindre lira can often be seen.
