Loop between land and sea around Porsac'h

A lovely, easy route through woodland, sunken lanes and coastal paths. However, avoid during wet weather as there is a very muddy section between (3) and (6). A break at point (10) (Roche Percée) is highly recommended.

Description of the walk

(S/E) From the Toul Douar car park in Clohars-Carnoët, with the ocean on your right, follow the GR®/coastal path eastwards to the entrance to Anse de Maneric.

(1) Take the wide path that climbs northwards.

(2) When you reach the gate of an isolated house at the top of the slope, turn onto the small path that crosses a meadow to the right and joins another path.

(3) Be careful not to miss the path that branches off to the left before heading north again.

(4) When you reach the road, take the GR® de Pays (red and yellow markings) opposite.

(5) Turn left. A little further on, be careful, as there is a discrepancy between the GR® route on the map and the markings on the ground. I have opted for the marked version, but the other is also very good (just a little longer).

(6) Continue straight ahead on the GRP® until you reach the exit of the hamlet of Quéon.

(7) Opposite, take a well-marked path through the meadows.

(8) Continue south. When you reach the road at Kerguélen, continue straight ahead to Kerchéré. At the edge of the hamlet, take the wide path on the right, heading west (your first glimpse of the ocean). You will come to a road.

(9) Take it to the left for a few dozen metres before joining the coastal path at Stang Nabec. Follow it to the left.

(10) Turn right, pass by Roche Percée (a good spot for a picnic and/or a swim), before reaching the Toul Douar car park (S/E).

A pleasant route between the sea and sunken paths.
It was very busy along the coast (it was a weekend with lovely weather), but after that we didn’t see a soul.

Very pleasant and without any major difficulties, the coastal section is magnificent.
However, at point 7, the only route to reach point 8 is the direct path; the path via Kerrin is blocked and virtually impassable, so we had to turn back.
