Passing by Pointe Saint-Efficace in Matignon
Right from the start, you will travel back in time. You will discover a medieval motte-and-bailey castle, then jump back a few centuries further to discover the Guerches, the ancestors of motte-and-bailey castles. Before reaching Pointe Saint-Efficace, you will pass the ruins of a watermill, then those of a tide mill and finally an old tide mill. As you walk along the sea, you will see Fort La Latte. On the way back, the Chapelle Saint-Germain is worth a detour.
Saint Michel Chapel in Erquy
A pleasant little walk, but the chapel is only accessible at low tide, so you need to calculate the time available before crossing. The ford is a little difficult to cross due to large rocks. The chapel is open to visitors and an association called "Les Amis de la Chapelle Saint-Michel" is responsible for its renovation and maintenance.
Tour of Cap d'Erquy via the beaches
This route goes around the tip of Cap d'Erquy via the beaches on the north side and passes by the old pink sandstone quarries on the south side.These quarries were in operation until 1974 and date back to the 18th century. A superb walk, especially in good weather, which is often the case. The route is lined with gorse and broom, which you may be lucky enough to see in bloom. The northern part of the route is a little wilder and more exposed to the wind, but at high tide the waves are a magnificent sight.
