Lancieux walks
Lancieux via the Chemin des Poissonniers
It is the morning light that reveals the full charm of Lancieux Bay, with its panoramic view of the Îles des Ebihens and the east coast of Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer, as you walk along the lively beaches of Saint-Sieu and Les Briantais. The coastal path (GR® 34) overlooks the rocky shore, leading to the highest point on the coast at Tertre de Cordieu. The return journey takes you beneath a canopy of greenery that covers the Chemin des Poissonniers.
The banks of the Frémur from Saint-Briac-sur-Mer
The Frémur estuary has two different aspects: the right bank is lined with mudflats and polders, which provide refuge for many species of birds during migration. The path is lined with hedges and undergrowth, providing a cool environment for walking.
The left bank is sandy, ideal for beach games in summer. It is also where boats moor. There is a beautiful view of the Roche-Good tide mill, nestled at the end of the estuary.
Le littoral à Saint-Briac
Ce circuit du littoral emprunte le GR® 34. Il permet la découverte des anciens chemins des douaniers et offre un point de vue exceptionnel, de l’embouchure de la Rivière du Frémur jusqu’au Cap Fréhel.
The three points of Saint-Briac to Saint-Lunaire
From Bechay or Béchet Beach to Saint-Lunaire via Dinard Golf Course.
The outward journey follows the coast, along customs paths and part ofthe GR® 34; return via the boulevards with their maritime names, along departmental roads lined with beautiful granite houses.
The three headlands encountered along the route are Pointe de la Haye, Pointe de la Garde Guérin and Pointe du Décollé.
Magnificent views of the Breton coast.
Seaside walk in Saint-Briac-sur-Mer
Between Saint-Malo and Cap Fréhel, land and sea alternate between headlands and bays, offering walkers countless opportunities to explore the coastline. At the mouth of the Frémur, the village of Saint Briac occupies a well-sheltered spot where the coastline offers some of the rare south-facing beaches of the Côtes d'Armor. With unspoilt headlands, a few islands dotting the horizon, pretty holiday resorts and a seaside golf course, this is a very pleasant setting to take a stroll!
The Floubalay route in Ploubalay
This route takes you along the Floubalay Stream through the woodland. After passing through a few villages, you arrive at Baie de la Beaussais, with Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer and Île des Hébihens on the opposite bank. You will pass by Manoir de Bel-Être and Tour de Brenan. The second part of the walk takes you through the Ploubalay countryside before returning to the stream.
The marshes and polders of Beaussais-sur-Mer
In a bucolic setting, follow the course of the Ru Le Floubalay, which flows into the polders of the Bay of Beaussais-sur-Mer. In Ville-ès-Prêtres, see the sculpture at the foot of the Ferme du Maris: "À l'abri dans le Marais"(Sheltered in the Marsh). It symbolises the work undertaken to regulate the devastating effects of the tides on this submersible area.
Les Hébihens from Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer
A beautiful walk between land and island, possible at low tide, towards the Hébihens archipelago.
The Hébihens Islands are a private island that extends the Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer peninsula. This is an opportunity to discover magnificent beaches and a protected natural site with wild seascapes.
Before setting off, check the tide times and coefficients to see if the crossing is possible.
The Tour de Saint-Lunaire in Blue and Green, via Pointe du Décollé
A superb hike, half by the sea and blue, half in the countryside and green. It is best to start at low tide or when the tide is going out.
This is an opportunity to cross the Grande Plage de Saint-Lunaire, which is largely exposed at low tide, then climb up to Pointe du Décollé and admire the entire Côte d'Émeraude, from Cap Fréhel to Saint-Malo and Cézembre. Why not stop for a picnic? On the sea side, you can also discover the magnificent Longchamp Beach, which is immense at low tide and much smaller at high tide.
This is also an opportunity to explore the south of Saint-Lunaire, where the countryside is just as beautiful, with its sunken lanes, gardens and old Breton houses.
The walk ends at the Vallée de l'Amitié, where you can stroll along the Crévelin river for almost a kilometre in the shade of oak trees.
La Pointe du Chevet in Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer
The Pointe du Chevet tour is easy to do and offers two types of coastline. On the west side: a wild coastline opening onto the Baie de l'Arguenon and the Hébihens archipelago that extends beyond it. On the east side: the Bay of Lancieux: the polders and small ports of La Houlle Causseul and Le Châtelet. The coastline of Saint-Jacut-de-le-Mer is bordered by 11 beaches, which you can discover by straying from the suggested route, which follows theGR® 34 to (8).
Tour de l'Arguenon maritime
Discover a magical estuary and hike in the valley from the mouth of the river to the coast.
Its name, "ar" "gwen" "on" (or the white river), comes from the fact that at high tide, its bed fills with a mysterious natural foam caused by the mixing of fresh and salt water at its mouth: nature in all its diversity.
The tip of Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer via the coastal path
Hike along the coastal path and inland at Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer with magnificent landscapes. If the tide is low, discover the Pointe du Chevet with its islets.
The hedgerows and ponds of the Frémur at the start of the Rues
The Pleurtuit ponds, fed by the Frémur, are a delight for anglers and stretch out in deep meanders through peaceful countryside, just a few kilometres from the Dinard-Saint Malo conurbation.
They provide the drinking water supply for the entire urban area thanks to the Bois Joli dam, which was filled in 1992
The path marked in yellow circles the area; it can be accessed from various starting points, including the hamlet of Les Rues.
Following Lawrence of Arabia to Dinard
The environment we are taking you to is no longer the one that Thomas Edward Lawrence, known as Lawrence of Arabia, explored by bicycle. But although urbanisation has developed considerably, the charm of the Emerald Coast remains. Let's head to the village of Saint-Énogat, the birthplace of the tourist town of Dinard, and take the coastal path around the two headlands that frame it: Pointe de la Malouine and Pointe du Moulinet.
Dinard between land and sea
You will start by winding your way through the Dinard countryside to reach the sea. Take the customs officers' path, the Clair de Lune promenade, and discover the many islets of the Bay of Saint-Malo. You can also explore the Goule aux Fées cave, where the Lumière brothers took their first photographs in 1877.
Pointe de Cancaval and La Malouinière du Montmarin
Jutting out into the Rance estuary, Pointe de Cancaval offers beautiful views of the right bank: from Saint-Servan to Saint-Malo, the dam and the moorings dotted along the coast.
During the walk, you will notice La Malouinière de Montmarin and its remarkable garden, which is one of the most beautiful private residences, and two tidal mill sites that bear witness to the industrial past linked to the tidal range.
