Departure from Plouguerneau (Finistère)
A truly exceptional route along the banks of the Aber Wrac'h, surrounded by herons and egrets. Granite boulders rise out of the ground and oak trees cling to the small cliffs of brownish-yellow silt. Be careful, this scenery has to be earned as the bank is very muddy and slippery. Be sure to wear waterproof shoes or boots and bring walking sticks to avoid slipping. Check the tide times carefully and plan to set off two hours before high tide. As a guide, it took us 1 hour and 15 minutes to reach the Devil's Bridge.
