Bégard walks
Along the Donant
The Donant and the Kerogan Stream flow into the Jaudy, one of the many coastal rivers of the Trégor.
This route allows you to discover peaceful, leafy landscapes as you walk along both sunken paths and tarmac roads where, at times, you can forget about civilisation.
If you’d rather not go hiking, you can spend the day at the amusement park, which serves as the starting point.
Tro Ménez Bré
This walk offers nothing less than the chance to climb the highest point in the Côtes d’Armor and enjoy a completely unobstructed 360° view. On a clear day, it’s even said that you can see the sea!
From Poulloguer Pond to Coatascorn
Although this walk uses a few tarmac roads, priority has been given here to forest paths and tracks open to farm machinery. In return, it offers magnificent scenery both around Poulloguer Pond and along the stream of the same name, with a very pleasant walk through the village of Coatascorn, a quintessential Trégor village with all its stone houses.
From Saint-Éloi to the Pergat Menhir, returning along the banks of the Guindy
There is virtually no elevation gain on this route, which follows small forest paths alongside a river and stream, allowing you to enjoy the sound of the water and the birdsong.
There is no answer to the mystery of the menhirs when faced with this colossus weighing several tonnes, which has stood in this small clearing for over 5,000 years.
The Trégor countryside in Pluzunet
The Trégor countryside, always rich in peaceful scenery, is at its best during this walk, which presents no difficulty.
Circular route around Pédernec from Kernévez Jaudy via Guénézan and Rumodu
This easy circular route, starting from the hamlet of Kernévez Jaudy in Pédernec, will take you through the surrounding countryside along various paths linking the different hamlets on either side of the four-lane road connecting Guingamp to Lannion. You’ll be able to admire the Chapel of Lorette and the church at Pédernec, as well as a few wayside crosses adorning the crossroads, whilst walking along the banks of small streams and the River Jaudy will offer you a refreshing break.
Circular between Kernévez Jaudy and Tréglamus
A beautiful hike between Pédernec and Tréglamus on different types of paths. You will walk through the countryside, passing pretty hamlets and isolated farms, mainly on PR® or GR® trails. Between the views of the Ménez Bré summit and the wind farms, you will encounter no difficulty on the route, except for a few slightly damp sections, depending on the season, in the sunken paths.
Circular Pédernec, from Kernévez Jaudy to Ménez Bré
This circular walk in the Pedernecoise countryside will take you to the summit of Ménez Bré, the highest point in Trégor at an altitude of 302 metres. At the foot of the Saint-Hervé Chapel, you will have a 360° view of the Guingamp region and the Pink Granite Coast to the Monts d'Arrée. Apart from the fairly steep climb to the summit, you will encounter no difficulty on this hike. Choose a sunny day to enjoy the most magnificent view possible.
Brélidy and its surroundings
A very pleasant walk through the forest with a few slightly challenging sections, but these should not put off beginners as they are more than made up for by the lovely views of the local rivers, far from the noise of the town.
It ends with the panoramic view from the oppidum.
The Pergat Menhirs and the Koad Bré Wood
This short, easy walk takes you through the Louargat countryside to discover the two menhirs of Pergat, one of which is among the largest in Europe. You’ll follow the Ruisseau du Frout through its valley, which can be quite damp in places, before reaching the hamlet of Manaty. From there, you’ll head into the Koad Bré Forest at the foot of Ménez Bré before reaching Louargat via some lovely forest paths.
Circular route in Tréglamus, from Kermadec to the Kermoda Cross
This is a lovely, easy little walk in the countryside around Tréglamus. You will pass from one hamlet to another, travelling along a wide variety of paths (sunken, white, forest, grassy and a little tarmac) and landscapes (forests, stream banks, fields, pastures, etc.).
From Tonquédec to the castle ruins via the Léguer
There is virtually no elevation gain on this walk in the Trégor forest. Just magnificent scenery, starting with paths through chestnut trees, then a walk along the banks of the Léguer, ending with a visit to the imposing ruins of Tonquédec Castle. At the end of the walk, don't forget to visit the village church.
To the east of Tonquédec
We are not inviting you to hike towards Tonquédec Castle, which was dismantled around 1626 on the orders of Richelieu and is situated to the north-west of the village of the same name, but rather to the south-east of this village. There we will find the Guindy, a river dear to the people of Trégor, as well as green sunken paths in lush countryside.
Castles and chapels in the Trégor
The chapels of Kerrivoalan and Saint-Gildas on the one hand; but also Kergrist Castle (a private residence open to visitors only in summer) and, of course, the ruins of Tonquédec Castle and its oratory on the other; and finally the mills at Traoumorvan, Kergrist and Kergrot bear witness, throughout this route, to a Brittany that was once warlike, devout and agricultural, but has now become a tourist destination.
Circular route around Plouisy from the shooting range to Kernabas Mill
This easy hike will allow you to discover the countryside around Plouisy, the village and the surrounding wild valleys. You can also enjoy the beauty of the Moulin de Kernabas (or Kernabat, depending on the map and signposts!) or the grounds of the Cours Sainte-Anne and Kernabas Castle or Saint-Antoine Chapel. At the starting point, you will find a picnic area with tables and sports equipment, perfect for ending a beautiful day in the great outdoors.
Shooting range at Plouisy
An easy circular walk, featuring numerous footbridges, within the Champ de Tir nature reserve in Plouisy. This circular walk forms part of a longer route starting from the village of Plouisy, which has been accredited by the French Hiking Federation.
Tonquédec Castle and Kerfons Chapel
Two historic sites along this walk: Tonquédec Castle with its walls and restoration work, and the magnificent little Chapel of Kerfons. All this is complemented by a relaxing stroll along the Léguer.
Tour of the paper mill valley in Plounévez-Moëdec
The tour of the paper mill valley is a short hike through the forest that runs alongside the Léguer river and passes by the ruins of an old factory and a dam.
In the forest of Coat an Noz
To the south of Belle-Île-en-Terre, a forest hides many secrets. It comprises two parts separated by the Léguer river: to the east, the Coat an Hay State Forest (Le Bois du Jour) and to the west, the Coat an Noz State Forest (Le Bois de la Nuit). In the latter, with a 19th-century castle undergoing restoration and a former ironworks site (lead mine), the route follows wide paths that are sometimes poorly lit by daylight.
