Parking opposite the Town Hall.
(S/E) With your back to the town hall, head west along Rue de Toufoen, keeping the cemetery on your left.
Green markings
Turn left at the first intersection, Rue de Pontnellis (dead end sign with pedestrian logo), and continue straight ahead until you reach a barrier.
No markings
(1) Turn left into a wooded area along a stream, cross a small bridge and turn south (visible on OSM).
(2) Cross Allée des Chênes and continue straight ahead along a footpath that crosses this residential area. Pass a roundabout with a lamppost and continue straight ahead until you reach Impasse des Ajoncs.
(3) Turn left and you will come to a road; turn right onto it.
Green markings
At the T-junction, turn right and continue until you reach the first road on the left, Hent Roboliou.
(4) Continue for about ten metres and turn right onto Allée de Pouldiguy, a narrow road lined with trees. At the Y-junction, turn right onto Hent Keranner at the edge of the woods to reach a multiple junction.
Yellow markings
(5) Turn left, leaving the green markings for the yellow ones. Follow the signs for Porz Gwen (Guen) along the footpath. This path is actually a small road lined with imposing trees.
Go down this road heading south, passing a botanical trail in the woods on your right, and arrive at the edge of the Odet (with a view of the Cornouaille bridge in the background).
Yellow and red markings
(6) Follow the path on the right at the top of the beach, going upstream. It is best to walk at the top of the beach, passing under the large branches that lean towards the water. Note that some of them need to be supported, often in unusual ways.
Yellow markings
(7) Go around Anse de Porz Garo where the botanical trail ends. From here, you can also see Lanhuron Castle on the right. Continue along the beach under the branches of the trees lining the shore. Be careful, as some rocks may be slippery in places. As you approach Pors Keraign, you will see the Manoir de Kerouzien on the other bank, on the Plomelin side. Reach the slipway and note the importance of this location for mooring boats due to its access via the small road.
(8) Turn right and go up the small road that runs alongside a campsite. Be careful, this narrow road can be busy as it is the only way to reach the Pors Keraign mooring. At the first three-way junction (signposted "bourg de Gouesnac'h conseillé"), turn right and stay on the same small road.
Pass a sign marking the entrance to the village and arrive at a crossroads (give way sign).
(9) Turn left (signposted Gouesnac'h bourg) and continue to the roundabout. Leave the sign for Gouesnac'h village on your right, first turn left then right and take the small road called Hent Menez Land Gras. At the next three-way junction, opposite a small stone house, turn right following the signs and you will arrive at a T-junction.
Off the trail
(10) Turn right, leaving the yellow signposting to your left, and continue for about 50 metres along the edge of a wood. Behind a house (No. 42), turn left into a large gap in the wood. Continue straight ahead until you reach the junction with the D234. This section through the woods may be a little muddy due to roadworks. Turn right, pass the sign for Gouesnach (picnic tables) and you will come to a roundabout.
(11) Leave the road and turn right into the housing estate, then follow the street on the left. Continue along a pedestrian crossing and turn left to reach a roundabout. Turn right, pass a second roundabout and at the next one, turn left into Avenue du Stade.
(12) Turn left onto the pedestrian crossing that takes you past the church, then turn right onto the street to reach the town hall on the left (S/E).
