La Feuillée walks

This hike takes you from the foot of the Monts d'Arrée to the ridge, which rises to 385 m, with superb panoramic views on both sides.

Roc'h ar Feunteun, Roc'h Trédudon, Roc'h Trévézel, a line of jagged ridges. In the heart of the Armorique Regional Nature Park, the Monts d'Arrée rise up in a landscape of moors, heather and gorse. These landscapes give off a surprising impression, marked by unreality, mystery and authenticity, which we know well in inland Brittany.

Mountains in Brittany? It's possible. Despite their low altitude, the Monts d'Arrée offer a real mountain setting with rocks emerging from the moorland. This route along the mountain ridges will immerse you in a landscape of heather, gorse and rocky ridges similar to those found in Ireland or Wales. Please note: Since the fires of summer 2022, a municipal decree prohibits passage through the peat bog before the point (10). The circular is currently impossible.

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.

Nestled in a green valley, this commune has all the charm of the mountain countryside, with its sunken lanes, hedgerows, streams and rugged terrain. The name of the commune comes from the name of the parish patron saint, Saint Rivoal, formerly Riwall, the name of a large family that emigrated from Brittany to Great Britain in the 5th and 6th centuries. Saint-Rivoal has been awarded the "Communes du Patrimoine Rural de Bretagne" (Communes of Rural Heritage in Brittany) label.

An entrance to Finistère through the Monts d'Arrée gateway: the small medieval town of Plougonven with its parish enclosure is very close to the Gaspern forest.

Religious, secular and natural heritage are all on display here.

The municipality of Châteauneuf-du-Faou wanted to pay tribute to the painter Paul Sérusier, who stayed there and then lived there from 1906 until his death in 1927: creation of a museum, which opened in June 2025, and installation of a trail punctuated by eight information panels passing through places that were sources of inspiration for him.A walk along the banks of the River Aulne and through the woods completes the trail.
