Turn left and follow the path to the base of the dune bordering the beach "Plage de Kermor".
Pathways allow you to climb the dune for an overview of the seafront and then descend to the beach.
Please respect these pathways, as the dune is fragile.
At the large car park on the left, pass a gate and continue along a tarmac section.
Bend right and cross the beach parking lot.

(6) Leave the seafront by the street that rises to the left, and turn right into a small passageway that runs between houses, ending up in the street "Rue du Phare", which you follow to the right. Admire the charming Villa Tri Men hotel and reach the chapel.
(7) Go down to the harbour, around the chapel (open to visitors in summer), past the Abri du Marin (sailor's shelter), identifiable by its pink architecture and colour, and up the stairs at the gable of the Café de la Cale. At the intersection, turn right into the street "Rue du Menez", which runs alongside a car park on the right.

(9) Leave the GR®34, cross this road at the crosswalk and take the small road opposite.

(10) Bend right, continue along this path bordered by wetlands to reach a road which you cross at Kermor Bihan. Go straight ahead towards the gate marking the entrance to the Polder de Kerscuntec and join the bridle path.
