Hello Alainne,
Thank you for your input with this helpful review. The route had been drawn twice and was not detected during moderation. This error has been corrected, and the route is now the correct length.
Only the comment about the change due to the safety measure remains: is this a temporary or permanent change, and where is it located?
Thank you for your feedback, which will enable us to update the information.

Hello,
Oh, right, we did it in a loop as described.
However, the route no longer matches because, for safety reasons, the route indicated has been closed and we have to take another route.
Furthermore, we still believe that there is a problem with the mileage indicated
best regards

It's a round trip.
So the distance of the circuit is correct.

Beautiful hike along the water. There was a high tide that day, so we had to leave the coastal path and go back up to the road we were supposed to take anyway.
Much less interesting to walk along the busy road.
But it was very nice along the water.

The first part is fine, along the coast, but the last part is on the edge of a road.
The steep path is poorly protected along the estuary; in some places there are no safety barriers, which poses a risk of falls, especially with children.

It's a very beautiful walk. Shorter than indicated on the map. To return to Kerfany les pins, it's better to take the GR341 rather than the paved road. It's much more pleasant (undergrowth and beautiful trail) and not much longer!
Enjoy your walk!

Hello, I walked this route several years ago, but I don't have any GPS data or enough memory to give a detailed description, other than that it's a pretty forest trail and that the chapel was inaccessible because it was in very poor condition. I just think it's a shame to suggest long stretches of road when there's an alternative trail.

Thanks Thierryb26, correction made. As for the rest, perhaps the author can provide you with more information, but why not suggest an alternative?

• Edited:

This is probably a spelling mistake in the description; it must be the coastal path, not the coastal construction site (unless there is construction work going on ).

Otherwise, just out of curiosity: why return by road after WP 6 when it is possible to take the GR trail back to Kerfany beach via the chapel of St Guinal? Is this impassable?

⚑Departure from Moëlan-sur-Mer (Finistère)
Of the rias in Moëlan-sur-Mer, the Bélon is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful. Starting from Anse de Kerfany, the proposed route first goes up the dark, damp valley that leads to this beach. At Blorimond, head north to reach Anse du Lanriot. When you reach Bélon, the river of the same name reveals itself in all its majesty. Then simply follow the GR®34 markings to return to the starting point, staying as close as possible to this magnificent inlet.

Please note: following a landslide, it is no longer possible to connect the points (1) and (2) via the GR®34 cliffside path. See Practical Information for a detour.
