Starting point: Penfoul cove car park, along the D27 between Argenton and Landunvez.
Red and white markings
(S/E) Head west-southwest on a path that runs parallel to the road (towards Argenton). At a fork, go down to the right. Walk along a small beach and go up the other side.
(1) At the top, turn right. Follow the coastal path, passing several chicanes and continuing straight ahead at a crossroads.
(2) At an intersection, continue straight ahead on the coastal path and pass at the foot of the rock blocks on the left. Go to the end of a point also topped by rock blocks (Beg an Tour). Turn left and continue with the sea on your right. At the edge of a small beach, go through a gap in a low wall and turn right.
(3) At the Gwen Trez car park, turn right and follow a small tarmac road which soon gives way to a path. At a fork (wooden barrier), turn right onto a narrower path closer to the sea. Walk around the Pointe de Beg ar Garo. Pass at the foot of the rock blocks on the right-hand side and arrive at the Saint-Gonvel car park.
No markings
(4) Follow a small road on the left towards the dolmen. At the corner of No. 18, turn left onto a path between two fences and head towards the dolmen.
(5) Retrace your steps to the small road and follow it to the left to find the chapel after a hundred metres. Retrace your steps along the small road to the car park.
Red and white markings
(4) Turn left and, at the end of the bend, leave the road and take a path on the right, which starts at the foot of a 30km/h speed limit sign. At the next crossroads, continue straight ahead and follow the coastal path, passing by the houses on the left.
(6) Then descend to the right onto a small beach (the marked path is closed further on due to earthworks). Walk along the beach, crossing a stream that runs perpendicular to it, and climb up the other side. Continue along Rue des Amiraux, find the markings again and reach the port of Argenton.
No markings
(7) Immediately turn right towards the Argenton slipway, then climb the hill on the right topped by a stele for a beautiful view of the port, the slipway and the bay.
(8) Retrace your steps to Rue des Amiraux.
Red and white markings
(7) Turn left and follow the outward route in the opposite direction to the Saint-Gonvel car park.
(4) Go through the barrier and turn right (sign indicating the seaweed kilns). After about a hundred metres, at a fork, there are two options:
- Turn left and stay as close to the sea as possible to go around the Beg ar Garo headland again (option marked on the map).
- Turn right and then right again at the next intersections, onto a wide path, to shorten the route.
(3) At the Gwen Trez car park, turn left. After about 100 metres, you have the same two options as before:
- Turn left and stay as close to the sea as possible to go around the Beg an Tour headland again (option marked on the map).
- Turn right to shorten this route.
(2) Continue south-east along the coastal path.
(1) Descend to the left onto Penfoul Cove beach, climb up the other side and return to the car park (S/E).
