                Three complementary and very different atmospheres for this hike:- The Bélon estuary via Beg Porz, Port du Bélon and the coves of Lanriot and Sainte-Thumette,- The countryside, with its picturesque villages and the tranquillity of the Kerfany stream valley,- The cliffs, small beaches and viewpoints of the customs officers' path.
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.

                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.

                From the Saint-Nicolas Chapel in the heart of the seaside town of Port Mananec'h, this route descends to the beach, running alongside it at a height before joining the coastal path followed by the GR® 34. After a slightly steep section, the hike continues inland to reach a cove of the Karstic Cave and then the river, which you follow to Port Manec'h.
