Binic walks

The Ic is a small river, 17 km long, which flows into the English Channel at Binic. After a short climb up the cliffs at the harbour exit, you reach a tributary of the Ic at Lantic, and rejoin the river at Notre-Dame de La Cour, from where it takes you back to Binic. Along the way, you’ll discover two tourist attractions: the Lantic Adventure Park and Trégomeur Zoo. This route takes you through the hinterland of South Goëlo.

A short stretch on theGR®34at the start of the walk offers a glimpse of the pleasure of rediscovering these magnificent seascapes at the end of the route, which change with the tides. In between, the path takes you a little further inland, along small coastal rivers or following the old railway line of the Côtes du Nord narrow-gauge railway. A few examples of built heritage enhance this route: a mill, a wayside shrine, railway viaducts, a chapel and seaside villas.

A hike to enjoy the sea views, but also the unique trails of the Breton countryside.

This circular route straddles the municipalities of Plérin and Pordic. The route follows the coastal path between Tournemine Beach and Pointe de Bréhin, offering beautiful views of Rosaires Beach and the port of Binic. The return journey is inland, mainly through valley bottoms.

This route reveals a little-known side of Saint-Quay-Portrieux. The narrow streets lined with old buildings or modern villas link three monuments that have seen their heyday: the Saint-Michel windmill, the circular Notre-Dame de la Garde chapel and the Saint-Quay fountain, which is said to be the origin of the town’s founding. Two parks offer a chance to take a break: the Parc de la Duchesse Anne and the Parc des Druides, where you are immersed in a setting steeped in legend. Superb views from theGR®34.

A short walk that allows you to discover the village of Tréveneuc and its coastline via the customs officers' path.

From Port Goret, follow the coastal path along the heights of the Goëlo coast. From the top of the steep cliff, breathe in the sea mist and the scents of unspoilt nature. Nestled between land and sea, the heart of the village, with its recent developments, retains its old-world charm. As you walk along the route, its old stones echo a calm and serene way of life, woven with local tales and legends.

With a 360° view of Saint-Brieuc Bay, the Pointe du Roselier is a must-see viewpoint. The entire bay, stretching all the way to the end of the Anse d’Yffiniac – a designated National Nature Reserve – unfolds before your eyes. This breathtaking view has made the headland a strategic site since the Iron Age. From here, one could scan the horizon to defend against threats or communicate with sailors. Below, Martin’s Beach—a cove of rocks, pebbles and sand—is one of the local paradises for shore fishermen.

This route was used for the second edition of the Plouha 24-hour sports event. Starting from the superb Palus beach, it leads to Keregal Chapel and ends along the small coastal river of Plouhatin, the Corzic, which takes us back to the sea. The route is mainly through woodland.

This route was used for the first edition of the 24h du Sport de Plouha. Starting from the superb Plage du Palus, it runs alongside Le Corzic and climbs gently up an old sunken path to Pointe de Plouha. From there, the view is magnificent. You then descend back to Palus via theGR®34.

A lovely hike starting from Palus Beach, which will take you along the customs officers' path to the Port of Gwin Zégal with its distinctive mooring posts, which are almost unique in the region. The passage through Pointe de Plouha and Le Pommier offers magnificent views of the coast and the highest coastal cliffs in Brittany. The return journey is along rural roads through various typical hamlets and beautiful forest paths.

A hike that begins with a gentle climb on a tarmac road, allowing you to warm up before following the GR®34, which is more rugged. The last third of the hike offers breathtaking views of the sea as you pass by Pointe de Plouha (the highest cliff in Brittany). Like any circular, it can also be done in the opposite direction, thus avoiding a descent down stairs that may be considered problematic. In this case, you will need to make a significant effort from the outset.

Plouha is home to the highest cliffs in Brittany. They can be seen from theGR®34. Starting from the town centre, this short route takes you along beautiful sunken lanes typical of the Goëlo region for the first half of the route, then through several villages with beautiful stone houses. Along the way, you will see several granite wayside crosses.

Located between the town and the sea, this route makes us forget that we are walking near a large town. To be discovered all year round, enjoying the colours of the seasons and the tides. This route allows you to discover the Port du Légué and several beaches in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc.

From the Chapel of La Trinité, the route quickly reaches the cliffs. It then follows theGR®34along a fairly rugged section, but with unobstructed views (from Bréhat to Saint-Quay) and numerous possible stopping points. At the lowest point, the beaches of Port Moguer and Gwin zegal are particularly enjoyable. You leave theGR®34before reaching Palus beach, and old sunken paths lead back to small roads that pass through pretty villages to return to the starting point.

This hike can be split into two parts: a 9 km loop to the north-west, which includes Bonaparte Beach, and a second 6.5 km loop to the south, which offers views of Pointe de Plouha. Both loops follow theGR®34coastal path and include some ascents and descents that may be difficult for inexperienced hikers.
