Description of the walk

Parking available behind the church.

(S/E) From the car park, go and admire the Saint-Clair fountain and its wash house located a few dozen metres north-west of the church.

(1) Return to the church, take the street on the left and, after the wide right-hand bend, you will arrive at a small square where a path leads off to the left. Follow it to the Petit Verger housing estate. Cross the estate and join Impasse de Boderharff at the crossroads.

(2) On the left, take Chemin de Toulgueri for about 50 metres and turn right. Continue along this small road until you reach the next T-junction with a street.

(3) Turn left and follow the hill and its oyster farmers' huts until you reach the junction with the D 195 at a place called Pen Cadenic.

(4) Turn right towards "Le Tour du Parc" then take thesecond left, Rue de Castel, follow it to the end, passing a bridge on your right, and you will arrive at the coast near a bridge.

(5) Turn right, cross the bridge and continue along the coastal path. Walk along Rouvran beach and continue along the coast to Rue de Banastere.

(6) Ignore the Bonastere bridge on your left, cross the street (carefully) and take the path opposite through the oyster farm. Follow this path, keeping to the left, until you reach the junction with Rue de Toulcaden. Turn right into this street and rejoin Rue de Bonastere.

(7) Cross (caution) and take the street on the left at an angle. It remains close to Rue de Banaster for about 150 metres and then reaches a crossroads at the end. Turn right and continue straight ahead, ignoring the side streets. You will arrive at a T-junction.

(8) Turn left and continue to the cemetery, then go behind the church to reach the car park (S/E).

Not very common for mid-February, under a grey sky
flat landscapes without relief, too marked by oyster farming activity.
