Description of the walk

Park next to the church and the post office.

(2) Follow theGR®® 34 (red and white markings) which heads off to the left.

(6) Ignore the path on the left (no entry) and continue straight ahead. Reach the valley leading down to Palus Beach.

(7) Turn right towards Plage du Palus.

(8) Retrace your steps.

(7) Follow the path up the valley to Rue du Palus.

A pleasant, fairly easy route with lovely views along the coastal section of the route. The route seemed quite busy (on 13 April 2026). We didn’t go to Palus Beach as we ran out of time.

Between land and sea, along the GR 34, beautiful views of the ocean, offshore wind turbines and fishing boats. The coastal path is fine, but watch out for children as it is sometimes close to the cliff. There is a crêperie where you can stop for a bite to eat halfway through the hike, as well as a beach and a picnic area. Return through the countryside and enjoy the Breton houses.
Go there, but beware of overcrowding in summer.

Despite mixed weather, we thoroughly enjoyed this walk along the Plouhatine coast. Magnificent views and sunken paths follow one another throughout this circular route.
There are no difficulties to report, even in light rain.
We set off from the village of Tréveneuc and followed the directions provided by contributors to quickly access the off-road trails.
Thank you all for your contributions.

A lovely walk along the coast with beautiful views.

I can confirm that at the start, it is best to turn right to pass in front of the cemetery and follow the stream, which you can reach at the bottom of Rue de Kerpont. This "detour" allows you to join the route just after marker no. 1.

You can avoid a long stretch of tarmac road when leaving the village by taking a path that runs alongside a stream.
Turn right onto the road leading downhill alongside the cemetery, then turn left onto the path.

The views are very interesting, but the start of the hike, along a road, is a bit of a shame. In the village of Treveneuc, rather than following the road down to Saint Marc, there is a footpath that starts at the end of Rue de Kerpont and leads to Rue Saint Marc (the path is marked on maps and signposted in the village). Running parallel to the road, it allows you to avoid it for over 500 metres, making the hike more rural.

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.

⚑Departure from Plouha (Côtes-d'Armor)
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.

⚑Departure from Plouha (Côtes-d'Armor)
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.

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 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.

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.
