Botsorhel walks

Guerlesquin, a small town full of character, was known in the 11th century for its fairs. From the 17th century, beautiful buildings remain in the town centre: the Présidial, the Market Halls and the Church. The town is close to the Étang du Guic, where two fine sandy beaches await walkers.After walking around the lake, we explore the nearby forest, moving in turn from Finistère into Côtes-d’Armor before returning to Finistère. Indeed, it is the river ‘Le Guic’ that forms the departmental boundary.

A gateway into Finistère via the Monts d’Arrée: the small medieval town of Plougonven, with its parish enclosure, lies close to the Gaspern forest. At the southern end of this route, two menhirs stand alone in a field.

A walk to discover the beautiful Saint-Agapit Church in Plouégat-Guérand, with its rich collection of polychrome sculptures, as well as a pretty fountain. The main street, Place du Bourg, is lined with traditional village houses.

This is a short, easy route that takes you through the village and allows you to discover the fully restored Saint-Agapit Church, the Porz Meur Tumulus, which probably dates back to the Bronze Age, and the surrounding countryside.

This walk was created for guests at the Ferme de Croaz Men (Croaz Men on maps). However, part of the route described here, which bypasses the farm, is accessible to everyone starting from Garlan. It is a short circular route that takes you past a wash house, a few pretty houses with their hydrangeas, and crosses the River Dourduff. Guests at Croas Men, see this link.

The Beffrou Departmental Forest is a beautiful 611-hectare area! During this hike, which includes a few challenging climbs, you will only see tarmac when crossing roads. A pond, a covered walkway, a high point offering a view of the Monts d'Arrée and a chance to discover the local flora and fauna: here, everything grows in peace and tranquillity.

A walk to discover Morlaix. Along this route, you’ll find a few churches and chapels, including the beautiful Saint-Mélaine Church, some stunning murals, the viaduct, a lovely wash house and a few fountains, numerous medieval half-timbered houses, picturesque narrow streets, alleyways and stairways (which involve quite a bit of climbing), the former tobacco factory, the former monastic quarters on the town’s hillside, but also plenty of car parks and traffic – even right in the town centre – and the regrettable absence of the River Morlaix, which has been covered over by a car park upstream of the harbour.

On this walk, you’ll follow a short section of the Voie Verte No. 7 (La Vélodyssée ) before heading into the northern part of the Huelgoat Forest and passing through several hamlets in the Monts d’Arrée.

Starting from the village of Pont Menou, follow the River Douron to its estuary between the headlands of Locquirec and l’Armorique. After enjoying a few views of the open sea, you’ll return via the higher ground of the valley. The route passes through numerous hamlets, some with beautiful houses, chapels and fountains, as well as ancient Roman baths. You’ll also enjoy stunning views of the Tour d’Argent and Île Blanche manor houses.

This is an easy walk, except for the distance, which combines sunken paths and wide forest lanes, as well as chapels and castles, not to mention streams and brooks, with the English Channel as a backdrop.

Setting off from Plestin-les-Grèves, you very quickly catch sight of Grève Saint-Michel, where, at low tide, the English Channel recedes into the horizon, creating a vast expanse for all kinds of wind sports: sand yachting, windsurfing, kite flying, etc... Then, following theGR®34, you walk along the Corniche de l’Armorique, discovering Lannion Bay and the mouth of the Douron. Opposite lies Locquirec and Finistère. History is also present in the form of the Gallo-Roman thermal baths.

The commune of Tréduder is bounded by three streams: to the west, the Roscoat; to the south, the Dour Plat, which flows into the Yar, marking the commune’s eastern boundary. This walk takes you along these streams, but numerous small streams feed into them, making certain sections very wet in spring.

The aim is to follow the course of the Saint-Éturien stream and then the Léguer river from Plouaret-Trégor station to Lannion station. Plan to return by train.

Hike along the banks of the Douron: nature, birds, tranquillity. The Saint-Haran circular route is part of the chapel route.

Discover the banks of the Douron, the coastal river that separates the Côtes d'Armor and Finistère departments. Right from the start, you will have to cross a pass: the Col de Saint-Haran (24 metres!), as indicated on the sign at the top. You will cross into a different department when you cross the bridge next to the Moulin de Moualhic, and again at Pont Menou.

A circular walk starting from Saint-Efflam, initially through the countryside, dotted with fountains and a few pretty houses, before reaching the Douron estuary and continuing along the coastal path beside the Douron cove, then along the Pointe de l’Armorique cliff-top path, between the headlands of Plestin and Beg Douar. You’ll pass by the ancient Roman baths at Hogolo and have the option of heading down to some small beaches.

This beautiful circular walk is divided into two parts. The first part follows the customs officers' path and runs along the seafront, passing numerous viewpoints, headlands and beaches until it reaches the banks of the Douron estuary. The second part winds through the countryside of valleys and hamlets, revealing pretty manor houses before reaching its climax at the seaside, at an altitude of 84 metres, at the top of the Grand Rocher, which offers an exceptional view of almost the entire bay of Lannion and the Plestinaise countryside.

The Grand Rocher towers 84 m above the Lieue de Grève and offers stunning views in all directions. You’ll climb to the top during this walk, which also takes you along the beach and through the countryside, past beautiful country houses and the Saint-Efflam Fountain.

Discover Grève Saint-Michel: a bay where the sea retreats more than 2 km; first by climbing the Grand Rocher for a breathtaking panorama, then, closer up, by walking along the beach, and finally, admiring it from the famousGR®34hiking trail. You will continue to admire Lannion Bay as you skirt around the Pointe de l'Armorique and, more specifically, the Pointe de Plestin, before following the Douron estuary, admiring the chapel and fountain, and returning to Saint-Efflam.

A beautiful hike, much of it taking place along the seafront corniche. Along the way, you can add a visit to a Gallo-Roman site and take a refreshing dip!

The Pointe de Locquirec offers wonderful landscapes! From Pointe Blanche, the whole bay of Locquirec opens up to walkers, with a different landscape depending on the sea level, followed by the beauty of Kerboulic and its second homes, bursting with sunshine on the Plage des Sables Blancs and Pointe du Corbeau, and finally ending with Pointe du Château and the small port of Locquirec.

A picturesque walk through woods and fields with panoramic views of Morlaix Bay.
