Plonévez-Porzay walks

Along beautiful paths through the woods and small roads, this route takes you up the Montagne de Locronan, where the little Chapelle ar Sonj chapel is located, an essential stop on the various troménies: viewpoint over Locronan and the entire Porzay region from Ménez Hom to the Bay of Douarnenez. The route continues down into the woods to the imposing Chapelle Saint-Thélau chapel, before returning via the historic centre of Locronan.

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

This route can be split into two complementary loops:- the first part follows the coastal path through the "Pointe de Tréfeuntec".- the second crosses the dune belt to reach the chapel "Chapelle Sainte-Anne La Palud".In both cases, beautiful views over the bay "Baie of Douarnenez".

Coastal circuit overlooking the bay of Douarnenez, passing by the Kervijen reed beds.The best time to see the dune flowers is May-June. Warning : GR® prohibited between (S/E) and (1) since March 2021. Study in progress, but no information on site.Possible detour via the place called "Le Marrou" (mountain bike trail).

Follow theGR®34coastal path to Pointe de Tal ar Grip, where you can enjoy views of the long Pentrez Beach. Return along small roads to discover Saint-Sébastien Chapel and its fountain. Finally, return to the coastal path you took on the way out and notice how the landscape changes with the tide. (Please note) at the start, theGR® has been diverted along the road for about a hundred metres (information provided by a Visorandoneur)

From the valley where the Ruisseau du Ris flows, passing through the edge of the Bois de Nevet, this route, alternating between paths and small country roads, allows you to discover the small Chapelle Sainte-Brigitte, isolated in its green setting.A short stretch on the Voie Verte reminds you of the former railway line that operated from 1884 to 1988.

Loop around Ménez-Hom, the last peak of the Montagnes Noires, via a country route on the east side before starting the climb to pass the two peaks of Le Yed (329 m) and Le Hielc'h (298 m). Wide panoramic view of the Aulne valley and its suspension bridge, the bottom of Brest harbour and the entire Bay of Douarnenez. Beautiful vegetation of low-lying heathland and flowering heather from June onwards. You can visit the imposing chapel (if open) and its enclosure with its 1544 calvary.

Circuit along Port-Rhu, the port museum and marina, continuing along the greenway.Return via the protected natural site of Plomarc'h and along the fishing port.

Take a stroll to discover Tréboul, the seaside district of Douarnenez: its marina, Plage des Sables Blancs beach, coastal path, chapel, marine cemetery and narrow streets.

Hike to the summit of Ménez-Hom (330 m), the highest point of the Montagnes Noires in Brittany. Great views of Douarnenez Bay, the Crozon peninsula and the Aulne maritime. A mecca for model aircraft enthusiasts.

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

Le circuit des Moulins fait le tour de la commune sur environ 27km. Cette partie parcourt la campagne par des chemins creux et des vallées ombragées. Autrefois plusieurs moulins existaient sur les nombreux ruisseaux.

Semi-urban circuit towards the imposing Ty Mamm Doué Chapel. Alternating between streets, wooded areas and riverside paths.

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

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.

Your path is the customs trail near Telgruc-sur-Mer, on the Crozon peninsula, at the tip of Brittany, has breathtaking panoramas in fine weather and thrills in rough weather.
