Discover the remains of the Manor of Saint-Alouarn and the mill, via the Quimper-Douarnenez bike route and country roads.

After wandering through the streets and alleys of Locronan, follow the paths through the bocage to return via the Bois du Névet.

The Odet River first rolls its cool waves through gently rolling hills, wooded countryside and long meadows.Then, suddenly, upstream from Quimper, it carves out a narrow, deep gorge and describes a surprising "hairpin bend" around the Griffonès cliff, creating a wild, winding ravine framed by woods, rocks and moors.It is this discovery that I invite you to explore.

Discover the Goyen river and its valley via sunken paths and woodland.

This route from north to south of Pont-l'Abbé allows you to discover pieces of the town's history. The Saint-Jacques de Lambour Chapel with its decapitated bell tower is a reminder of the Red Cap Revolt of 1675. The greenway follows a section of the old Transbigouden railway line that linked Pont-L'Abbé to Quimper and operated until 1963 the Château des Barons, built in the 13th and 14th centuries by the Barons of Pont, who became powerful lords, the inhabited bridge and, finally, the 19th-century towpath , built to cope with an increase in traffic and tonnage in the port.

From the pretty little village of Poullan-sur-Mer, head towards the coast. As you walk from headland to headland and small coves, you will overlook part of the Bay of Douarnenez with Cap de la Chèvre, one of the headlands of the Crozon peninsula, opposite.

Île-Tudy remained a separate island until around 1850. With the creation of the Kermor sea wall in 1853, blocking the sea on the Pont-l'Abbé side, it is now a peninsula of the same name, located on the left bank of the river's mouth, opposite Loctudy on the right bank. It extends inland through a vast area of polders classified as a protected natural area. This circuit allows you to go around it via the polder. _
