Route des Vergers in Plabennec
The starting point for this route is at the Espace Louis Coz, marked in blue. Along this educational route, you will discover five information panels providing information about the different species of apple trees and apples in general. Designed for Sunday walkers, this route is a good route for families who want to take a short walk around the town while learning about the association's work in conserving rare apples. Each panel is located in one of the five conservation orchards maintained by the Avalou Plab association.
The Sainte-Marguerite peninsula along the Aber Wrac'h and Aber Benoît
See the mountains plunge into the sea. As you walk along the two largest Breton abers, you will appreciate the different landscapes that each turn offers.
This two-day route can be done in either direction, and you will notice that the landscapes are completely different. Mainly on theGR®34, the route is simple and well marked.
The Devil's Bridge over the Aber Wrac'h
A truly exceptional route along the banks of the Aber Wrac'h, surrounded by herons and egrets. Granite boulders rise out of the ground and oak trees cling to the small cliffs of brownish-yellow silt. Be careful, this scenery has to be earned as the bank is very muddy and slippery. Be sure to wear waterproof shoes or boots and bring walking sticks to avoid slipping. Check the tide times carefully and plan to set off two hours before high tide. As a guide, it took us 1 hour and 15 minutes to reach the Devil's Bridge.
Between Beg ar Vilh and Sainte-Marguerite
At the entrance to Aber Benoît, this route takes us to the dunes of Sainte-Marguerite in the commune of Landéda. The dunes offer a magnificent setting, which surfers have understood. The depth of the Broennou cove allows for a contrast of colours between the water and the sky, weather permitting.
Tour of the three lakes and Saint-Renan town centre
An easy, flat walk around the three lakes in Saint-Renan. There is also a slight detour through the medieval town centre of Saint-Renan.
These lakes are artificial. Previously, there were tin quarries here. In the 1960s, these were gradually converted into lakes. Lake Ty Colo is home to water sports activities such as a wakeboarding centre.
The town of Saint-Renan is an important medieval town. The town centre still bears traces of this.

Let's explore the Brest Arsenal, deeply entrenched around the Penfeld, the ramparts hidden in the woods, and several viewpoints over the city and the harbour. The saying goes that Brest was completely destroyed during the Second World War... This is not true: "only" 80% of it was destroyed. This route explores some of the remaining 20% (towers, gates, ramparts, a few old streets and houses).
