Moëlan-sur-Mer walks
From Moëlan to the sea and back, via Chef-du-Bois
This fairly long walk allows you to discover the different aspects of nature in this pretty corner: cliffs overlooking the ocean, streams and green corridors, diverse forests. It also has the advantage of being able to start directly on foot from the village of Moëlan. Another advantage is that there are many variations that allow you to make the walk shorter or longer.
Bois de Kermeur and the banks of the Bélon
This route combines a countryside section through small villages with the Bois de Kermeur, where you will discover the Fontaine Sainte-Thumette and the long covered walkway of Kermor Bihan.
The return journey follows the left bank of the Bélon, a major oyster farming area.

Land and sea via Le Pouldu, departing from Cohars-Carnoët
At the end of the 19th century, following Pont-Aven, Le Pouldu in Clohars-Carnoët became a refuge for several painters from the Pont-Aven School, such as Paul Gauguin, Meyer de Haan, Paul Sérusier, Charles Filiger and many others. The seaside and the lush countryside inspired these artists, who captured them in their paintings.The countryside sections have retained many lovely, shaded sunken paths. Three restored chapels and a windmill add a lovely heritage touch to this walk.
From Brigneau Port via Île Percée
From the small port of Brigneau, nestled in a magnificent estuary, follow theGR®34trail to Île Percée, a small island where blockhouses were used to defend the coast and, above all, the submarine base at Lorient.
The return journey along country lanes and through woods takes you back to the bottom of the ria, where old sardine boats lie dismantled and silted up, living out their final days.

A taste of Brittany! Fishing villages, chapels, rivers, beaches, oyster farming and sunken lanes... the whole of Brittany in a single walk.

Loop between land and sea around Porsac'h
A lovely, easy route through woodland, sunken lanes and coastal paths. However, avoid during wet weather as there is a very muddy section between (3) and (6). A break at point (10) (Roche Percée) is highly recommended.
Bélon estuary, countryside and coastline starting from Kerfany Beach
Three complementary yet very different settings for this walk:- The Bélon estuary via Beg Porz, Port du Bélon and the coves of Lanriot and Sainte-Thumette,- The countryside, its picturesque villages and the tranquillity of the Kerfany Stream valley,- The cliffs, small beaches and viewpoints along the Customs Officers’ Path.
Kerfany-Bélon circular
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.
