(Out and back) With your back to the car park, head towards the bridge and take the first path on the left, which begins with a flight of steps. Follow this grassy path uphill until it joins the D67.
(1) Cross the road with care and take the small road opposite (stone cross reinforced with an iron crossbar). Ignore a path on the right and the entrance gate to the Manoir de Keruzou on the left, and continue until you reach a small roundabout.
(2) Carry on straight ahead, then turn right at a small car park. Follow a concrete path and pass by a basketball court. At the end of the path, turn right and follow the path downhill, with a residential area on your right and woodland on your left. You’ll emerge onto the D67 near three large boulders blocking the entrance to the path.
(3) Turn left and walk along the pavement on the left, crossing the bridge that separates the ria from the Étang de Kerjean. You’ll come to a grassy lay-by with a picnic table.
Walk alongside the ria, past a wash house, and reach Impasse Coz Castel on your right. Walk alongside the old iodine extraction plant, which used seaweed and dates from 1830, and emerge opposite the gendarmerie.
(4) Follow the road to the right for about forty metres and turn right onto Rue de Poul Konk to continue walking alongside the old factory. Join the D789 (Route de Brest).
(5) Cross carefully at the pedestrian crossing and, just opposite a Renault garage, turn left onto Venelle de Streat Hir. At the end, turn right onto Venelle de Streat Hir, which runs past the care home. First turn right then left, and walk alongside the car park to reach the Church of Sainte-Croix.
(6) Cross Rue Poncelin and take Passage Albert Le Bars opposite. At the end, turn left, then right at the junction to continue along Rue Aristide Lucas.
Turn right into Venelle de la Marine to come out onto Rue Sainte-Barbe, which you follow to the right for about twenty metres.
(7) Turn left towards the Notre-Dame-du-Bon-Secours Chapel, also known as Dom Michel, and its little garden.
Walk down Rue Dom Michel to reach the maritime co-operative, where you’ll have a lovely view of Le Conquet harbour. Follow the coastal path down to the harbour, the jetty for Ouessant and Molène, and the bustling shellfish fishing harbour.
GR®®34signposting (white and red).
Walk the length of the harbour heading eastwards, noting two houses with external staircases, the Maison des Seigneurs overlooking the ria, and a few old houses, known as ‘English’ houses, dating from the 15th and 16th centuries. Continue along the ria until you reach the footbridge.
(8) Take the footbridge and cross the ria. At Impasse des Galets, turn left, then take a path on the right leading onto Chemin de la Maison Blanche, which you follow to the left.
Turn right to join the access road to the peninsula’s final car park and follow it to the left. Cross the car park.
Unmarked
(9) At the exit, take the coastal path that climbs to the left (do not follow the tarmac road) and follow this path overlooking the Port du Conquet. Continue until you reach the Pointe de Kermorvan, where the lighthouse, built in 1849, stands.
(10) Cut across the tarmac road to continue along the path overlooking the small Porz Pabu beach. Carry on until you come out opposite Fort de l’Îlette. This islet, on which stands an old 18th-century battery, is accessible at low tide, but the crossing is rather rough (check the tide times carefully).
(11) The path continues (with a lovely view of Blancs Sablons beach). When you reach the tarmac road, head down to the left to reach the car park and walk past it.
GR®34markings (white and red).
(9) Walk past the car park and take the GR®34 on the left, which runs alongside the marram grass plantations bordering the beach. Walk past the Redoute car park and continue along this path beside Blancs Sablons Beach (ignore all the paths branching off to the right).
(12) At the end of the beach, near a ruin, the path climbs up to the cliff edge and becomes more rugged. Further on, the path joins the road to go round a private property. Turn left then right onto a wide, carriageable track, marked with yellow signpost no. 15.
YellowPR®® markings.
Follow this wide track which passes near Kervillou (a farm contracting firm). The path becomes a small road which bends left then right.
(13) At a place called Gorem ar Prat (not shown on the IGN map), ignore the yellow signpost heading left and continue straight on.
No signposting.
Carry on straight ahead along the uphill road until you reach the D28, then cross it.
Yellow markings.
Carry on straight ahead along the wide path that runs through the fields.
(14) When you reach a road, turn left then right (signposted ‘Toaré / Milin Toaré’ on the map) and begin a steep descent. As you approach Kerléo Mill and the chapel, leave the yellow markings, which head off to the left.
No markings.
(15) Begin the climb, passing close to the old mill which has been converted into a dwelling, and reach the 16th-century Chapel of Notre-Dame-du-Val or Traon, a pleasant spot featuring a garden laid out by a team of volunteers. Continue uphill and, at the next three-way junction, turn right. Pass close to La Métairie dairy farm, where you can see an old dovecote, and carry on, noting an old wayside cross with its altar of repose in the bend.
(16) Arrive at the village of Trébabu and its parish church, rebuilt in 1787, and take the time to visit the cemetery, where you’ll notice the coats-of-arms on the tombs of several noble families.
Yellow markings, which are rare and very faint.
Leave this pretty little village, adorned with flowers, behind you and head back up the road towards the D67. On the right, you’ll see a small, well-maintained wash house.
No signposting.
(17) After the sign marking the village exit, turn right at the Stop sign and take a cycle path that runs alongside the D67 towards Le Conquet. Just before the end of this path, you can see a manor farm on the left, flanked by a tall, square defensive tower.
(1) At the end of the cycle path (cross on the left), turn right (signposted ‘Syndicat des Eaux de Kermorvan’) and follow the wide, tree-lined path. It ends with a series of concrete steps before joining a road. Cross carefully and follow the road for 50 metres to reach the car park (S/E).
