(S/E) With your back to the church and school, take the path that joins the access road to Guernévez. Turn left onto a wide south-facing path and continue to a crossroads.
(1) Turn right and follow the path that forms a circular loop between the fields. You will arrive at the medieval Kergaro Cross.
(2) Turn left onto the road that ends at Kergaro farm and continue along the path that follows on from it. Pass under a power line and rejoin the tarmac road near Kerudalar. Cross a small road by first turning right then left, and continue along a new path between houses.
At the three-way junction, turn left, go around Kerudalar Bras and join a road which you follow to the right until it ends.
(3) Continue along the path between the meadows and you will come to a carriage road near a car park. Continue left in a north-westerly direction along the edge of the wet sphagnum bog and you will come to a crossroads.
(4) Turn right and walk along the bog. On the right, an interpretive route with decking allows you to access the interior of the old bog and learn about biodiversity and the evolution and formation of moors and bogs.
Continue along the bog until you reach the information shelter.
(5) Turn right and cross one of the streams that form the source of the Aber-Wrac'h via a small wooden bridge. Turn left, then a little further on, turn right at an acute angle to follow one of the streams, which you will leave on your left.
(6) Turn right onto the ballast of the old Landerneau - Brignogan-Plages railway line, which was inaugurated in 1894 and closed in 1946. Walk along the left-hand side of the peat extraction pits dating from the Second World War. Continue along this track between the fields until you reach the crossroads at Kervalquez. Note the old railway building.
(7) Turn left twice to enter the Fontaine Saint-Jean housing estate, then right to cross it via a pedestrian crossing. At the road, turn left towards the nearby Fontaine Saint-Jean-Baptiste.
(8) Turn around, then turn left into Venelle des Enclos, enter the enclosure of the town hall and the community centre (former presbytery). At the exit, turn left to enter the church enclosure with its calvary and former ossuary. Admire the porch and the bell tower. Go down several steps to reach the Place de l'École (S/E).
but we're not going to complain about the rain... In the bog, there is a short, very informative trail with explanations. Perfect for getting back into it after winter...
