(S/E) From the Pointe de Men Meur car park, turn your back to the sea and follow the road that goes around a large property to reach a new car park (toilets). Admire the beautiful row of light blue and white benches.
Take the boardwalk on the dune and continue along the seafront to the first barrier (opposite, bicycle prohibition sign).
No markings
(1) Leave the seafront on the right, following the path on the dune until you reach a roundabout. Keep left, cross the street and take a passage between the houses (no. 86 on the letterbox). You will come out onto Rue du Docteur Jacq, where you will see a beautiful pebble composition on the wall on the right.
At the first crossroads, house no. 7, turn left onto the old railway line, which has been converted into a mixed pedestrian and cycle path. Pass behind a car garage and you will come to a crossroads.
PR® yellow markings
(2) Turn right onto the wide grassy path that runs alongside a wetland on your left (orchids in June on the embankment), go around the chapel and its grassy esplanade to find the fountain on your left.
(3) Ignore a path on the left and a small road on the right and head straight ahead along a discreet path through the moorland. At the end, on the right, you will see an old building with a bread oven.
Continue along the path on the left. On the right, you will see a discreet sign indicating a place where
cross bases and millstones. Continue to a more open area where two paths meet. Turn right, cross a stream that may overflow in winter, and continue for about 800 metres on a wide, uphill paved path.
(4) Just before a road, turn right onto a wide gravel path, pass a large agricultural shed on your left and come out onto a small road which you follow to the right. Turn into the first road on the left and follow it until you reach the hamlet of Le Meinier.
(5) At the barely visible marker post on the left, leave the road and take a path, cross a small footbridge and continue straight ahead across a grassy area. Pass the sports grounds on your right, turn left then right near an old maritime pine tree and continue across the grassy area to reach the Primot housing estate. Follow the street that joins the D53.
(6) Cross this road carefully and continue straight ahead. A sign indicates a burial mound 50 metres away.
Opposite the entrance to a quarry, turn left into the woods and climb this hill to discover a dolmen.
Return to the road and continue left to reach the hamlet of Trévars where you can see a group of three fountains on the right, behind a cross with its base. (Unfortunately, when I visited in June, they were overgrown with vegetation; I reported this to the Tourist Office).
(7) Turn left and follow the path that winds its way through the fields. Note another cross with its base. Go around an imposing farm on the right (another old cross, still with its base) and join the D53.
(8) Cross carefully and take the street called Hent Ar Siprez. It continues along a farm track to a road, which you take on the left. Follow this road, ignoring the side roads (PR®® crossroads), and continue to a large stone cross on the right.
(9) Turn left onto a small tarmac road and continue to the crossroads at Kerzidal. In the bend, on the right, at the edge of a property, you will see an old wash house now decorated with aquatic plants (marked as a fountain on the map). Pass a few houses.
(10) Near three route trail signs, turn onto a wide grassy path bordered by heathland on both sides. Walk about 450m, looking for a discreet metal post with a yellow and mountain bike mark on the left, just before an ash tree on the right. This post indicates the entrance to the remains of a small covered alleyway on the left in the vegetation. Return to the path and continue to the junction with the old railway line.
No markings
(11) Turn right, go through the gate and carefully cross the road in two stages (small decorated garden in the middle) and pass between the house with a replica galleon and the beach car park. Continue to beach access point no. 31.
GR® 34, red and white markings
Turn right, cross a footbridge and rejoin the boardwalk on the dune.
(1) Continue along the path you took on the way there until you reach Pointe de Men Meur. On the rocks, you can also see the scars left by the removal of cross bases and millstones (S/E).
