The two banks of the Aulne as it winds through the hills

Walk in the Beffrou Forest
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.

Mine canal and Rivière d'Argent in Huelgoat
Does the Rivière d'Argent (Silver River), which glitters beneath the canopy of trees, owe its name to its bright sparkle in the twilight, or is it the nuggets that have escaped from the old mine that give it such a luminous appearance? The walk, which follows the mine's supply channel and then the turbulent course of the river, may provide the answer.
It appears that the route is no longer passable between points 4 and 6. If you venture there, please confirm this on the comments page.

Around Guerlesquin
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.

In the forest of Coat an Noz
To the south of Belle-Île-en-Terre, a forest hides many secrets. It comprises two parts separated by the Léguer river: to the east, the Coat an Hay State Forest (Le Bois du Jour) and to the west, the Coat an Noz State Forest (Le Bois de la Nuit). In the latter, with a 19th-century castle undergoing restoration and a former ironworks site (lead mine), the route follows wide paths that are sometimes poorly lit by daylight.
