Parking: Espace Ti Lokorn.
(S/E) When leaving the car park, turn right, walk alongside Espace Ti Lokorn and then the library. At the glassworks, turn left onto Venelle de Templiers.
GR®38 markings: white and red markings
Follow this small uphill road that runs alongside the cemetery. At the fork, turn right onto Chemin de Kerguénolé to enter the manor park, which is municipal property. There is a wide viewpoint here, and you can also see the Chêne du Névet oak tree, planted in 2007 (information panel).
At the exit, continue along the road on the left called the Voie Romaine and pass the Locronan exit sign
(1). At an old wooden bench, turn right downhill and you will come to a small esplanade with a bench. Turn right, go through the wooden barrier (no horses sign) and go down the sunken lane called Venelle Leur ar Person, which follows the wall of a property on the left.
When you reach an alleyway, note the imposing stone building on your right with a granite cross. Leave this alleyway on your right, continue along the same downhill path and follow the Venelle du Prieuré, which turns left (viewpoint of Saint-Ronan Church).
No markings
Leave a lane on the right as you leave theGR® and continue straight ahead to the end. Near two glass containers, cross an embankment and a car park. At the exit, first turn right then left to cross the road and take a small path near a fire hydrant. Walk along another car park on your right.
(2) Turn right onto a narrow path between two car parks. Cross Rue du Prieuré, take the path slightly to the right of the stone pillars marking the entrance to a property and join a small road opposite the Locronan exit sign. Follow it to the left for a few metres, then turn right onto a tree-lined sunken path.
At a crossroads (not shown on the IGN map), turn left towards the D63.
Cross this road with caution and continue opposite, along the long path lined with tree-lined embankments. Follow this beautiful downhill path, ignoring the side paths. You will reach a T-junction (view of the bell tower of Plonévez-Porzay and the bottom of Douarnenez Bay).
GR®38 markings: white and red markings
(3) Turn right and follow the wide track leading to the water treatment plant (pretty little cross on the right).
No markings
At the road, turn left, leaving theGR® trail to your right, pass an old farmhouse that is partly undergoing restoration (beautiful stonework) and climb up to the next path on the right marked by a calvary (Croaz Troyout). Turn right onto a grassy path along the edge of the fields (view of the Porzay basin and Ménez Hom) and take the first path on the right (signpost with yellow markings on the back).
(4) Follow this sunken path which passes near a beautiful farmhouse (Lodges de France) and its lake at Kervellic. Note the rustic wooden fountain on the right. Continue along the road which leads to the D63, and turn right at the roundabout. Go around the roundabout on the right and cross it at the exit towards Quimper.
(5) Climb up opposite via a discreet grassy path, which starts off steeply and continues along a street. Opposite a lamppost bearing a blue cross and near the house with the letterbox marked No. 7, leave the street and take a narrow path on the right heading south-west.
Cross a street and continue straight ahead. At the next street, first turn left then right to descend towards the calvary and the Notre-Dame de Bonne Nouvelle Chapel flanked by its large fountain and wash house.
GR®38 markings: white and red markings
(6) Pass between the wash house and the chapel and begin a steep climb up a steep path. At the top, turn left to go around the school buildings and come out onto the central square of Locronan. Cross the square, pass in front of the imposing porch and go around the church via a passage on the left. Pass between the back of the church and the cemetery to reach Rue du Four.
Turn right for a few metres, then turn left and pass between the post office and the town hall. At the end of the street, turn right onto a small path that runs alongside the town hall car park on your right. At the end, turn right and at Rue du Four, turn left to return to the Espace Ti Lokorn car park (S/E).
