A sometimes uneven walk through the undergrowth along two Breton rivers, offering a different view depending on the tide level.

From the Chapel of La Trinité, the route quickly reaches the cliffs. It then follows theGR®34along a fairly rugged section, but with unobstructed views (from Bréhat to Saint-Quay) and numerous possible stopping points.

This walk takes you through deciduous and coniferous woods where you can take the time to enjoy the cool air. You will also walk along farm tracks and past crops.

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.

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...

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.

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.
