Lézardrieux walks

Lézardrieux is situated on the left bank of the Trieux estuary, which, together with the Jaudy, forms the Pleubian peninsula. This extends into the English Channel via the Sillon de Talbert. Furthermore, with the town of Tréguier to the west, Pontrieux to the south and Paimpol to the east, Lézardrieux is the ideal base from which to explore this part of the Trégor region, close to the Île de Bréhat. This route allows you to discover the Trieux with its lighthouses as well as the Chapel of Kermaria.

An easy walk along the water’s edge through a landscape typical of Goëlo. Half the route follows the banks of the Ria du Trieux, which is flooded by the sea with the tides.In the second part, you’ll walk through fields of vegetables (artichokes, cauliflowers, potatoes...) – crops that are emblematic of this rich agricultural region.Please note that parts of this route may be impassable during high tides.

Loop along part of the Trieux river towards the sea and back through the countryside.

The three chapels of Plourivo are finally united in a single hike! Lancerf overlooks the Trieux, Saint-Ambroise has its miraculous fountain, and Saint-Jean is nestled in the hamlet of Penhoat. Three chapels, three different environments. A modest heritage, but one worth discovering. Hike along the edges of fields, farm tracks and pine woods. Finish your tour by sitting down at a picnic table facing the Trieux, just across the railway line. The setting is peaceful and relaxing.

This typical Goëlo landscape perfectly blends land and sea. From the heights of its rich agricultural land (cauliflowers, artichokes, potatoes, etc.), you’ll enjoy a sweeping view of the Trieux estuary with the port and the Lézardrieux bridge, then you’ll walk close to the water between the (6) and the (7).

A short route through the countryside from Paimpol to Plounez, a former commune now part of this port made famous by Pierre Loti’s novel “The Fisherman of Iceland”.Beautiful views of the Trieux downstream from Lézardrieux, not to mention the lovely Chapel of Notre-Dame de Kergrist.The route crosses the railway line of the “La Vapeur du Trieux” tourist train in two places.

The magnificent Penhoat-Lancerf pine forest and the majestic banks of the Trieux are the two main attractions of this hike. In addition to the Lancerf Chapel, this hike allows you to discover the Maison de l'Estuaire. This is infamous because, in 1924, the Traou-Nez site belonged to Pierre Quemeneur and Guillaume Seznec had agreed to buy it: this is where one of the very first episodes of the Seznec Affair took place...

A pleasant route through the Pleudaniel countryside and along the Trieux, either overlooking it or running alongside it.Several beautiful wayside crosses mark this route, as well as two chapels.Discover a tide mill and oyster farming.

In Breton, "glaz" refers to a colour found in natural elements, between blue, green and grey. It accompanies us on this route. The grey of the granite houses at the start and the mudflats at low tide. The blue-green of the bay, depending on the weather and the tides, which can be admired from the Kerroc'h tower. After Paimpol, the seaside town, comes Paimpol, the vegetable garden. The green-grey of the cabbage and artichoke fields. The little paths take us back to the old town where we can stroll, refresh ourselves or enjoy a crêpe.

This hike is worth doing in any season, given the rich heritage you will encounter. It is even better in spring and summer when the coastline is particularly flowery (agapanthus, hydrangeas, etc.).

This hike offers fabulous scenery from start to finish, with some particularly remarkable viewpoints. Requires two vehicles, one in the small car park at the start of Kerpalud, the other at the port of Loguivy de la Mer. Otherwise, return via country roads and an additional 4 km. The path is accessible in all seasons but requires a good level of fitness due to the five climbs involved.

A relatively easy hike, but with some elevation changes. Half of the route runs along the Trieux River, with higher sections offering views of Château de la Roche Jagu and even the Lézardrieux bridge in the distance.

A magnificent walk through a pine forest. After following the Trieux river and passing through a tunnel through the hill, we walk alongside the Trieux tourist railway line to admire the chimneys of the Château de la Roche Jagu in the distance and reach the Saint-Jean Chapel. Don't be alarmed by the sound of gunshots: there is a clay pigeon shooting range nearby.

Second part of the Trieux estuary, starting from its mouth near Loguivy.

Loguivy de la Mer is a fishing village once renowned for blue lobster fishing. This loop will take you from the tranquil Gouern Bay to the peaceful and famous Launay Bay, known as "Sorbonne beach", to the Pointe de l'Arcouest, the landing stage for the island of Bréhat. You will enjoy splendid panoramic views of the Bréhat Archipelago.

A walk through the countryside for the whole family. Follow the white signs. Just outside Plourivoù, the trail winds through the fields, across the meadows, and along the green pastures. This walk takes you along country lanes. You’ll cross the Plourivoù countryside through green valleys, following the streams of Canon and Quinic. Around the3 km mark, on the left, you’ll see the Saint-Ambroise chapel. Do feel free to leave the circular route to explore it. Parts of the route can be muddy at certain times of the year, particularly before and after the Allée des Chevreuils. Large puddles will force you to walk along the embankments. At the Georges Kerbellec rest area, you can take the Pont Min botanical trail for a 1.5 km detour.

We are now on theGR®34, a long-distance hiking trail dear to the Bretons as it runs along the entire coastline of our region. On this hike, we follow it northwards and, when we leave it, cross Le Paradis and finally rejoin it to admire the Trieux estuary.
