Plouézec walks

There are exceptional panoramic views along this section of theGR®34long-distance hiking trail, with the Anse de Paimpol, the panorama stretching from Beauport Abbey in the west to Paimpol and Ploubazlanec to Île de Bréhat, Roc'h du Chenel du Dénau, Grand Mez and Petit Mez de Goëlo, ending at Pointe de Plouézec in the east. To the south is Pointe de Minard, which marks the entrance to the Bay of Saint-Brieuc.

This section ofthe GR®34connects the Moulin de Craca on the heights of Plouézec to Beauport Abbey. To return to your starting point, take the road back, which offers views of Paimpol Bay and Bréhat Island. Once you have climbed back up to the plateau and passed Sainte-Barbe Chapel, follow the small, flat roads back to the mill.

This lovely circular walk offers beautiful views of Paimpol Cove and its rocks, then at Pointe de Minard, a stunning view of the Plouha cliffs. You can admire the beautifully restored Craca Mill, the pretty Port de Port Lazo where you can stroll along the beach and, further on, enjoy free access to the statue park. The famous Porz Donan steps will take you to Pointe de Minard. The return journey will take you from hamlet to hamlet along paths that are often agricultural and through very wild valleys.

Plouézec is known to local hikers for the many steps onthe GR®34 trailthat crosses the commune. This route avoids almost all of them and allows you to discover, without too much effort, the beautiful views of Paimpol Bay, the built heritage (Saint-Riom Chapel, wash houses, fountains, stone houses), and the fields of flowers and vegetables. The route mostly follows sunken lanes, farm tracks and footpaths. In short: a short route, the most peaceful you can do in this area of famous Paimpol cliffs, and where you won't get bored because the route crosses very varied areas.

The western part of Saint-Brieuc Bay on the Goëlo coast is known for its cliffs, which are among the highest in Brittany at Plouha (104 m).

This is an easy hike. Running along the shore, it offers breathtaking views of Beauport and Paimpol bays.

This walk takes you along beautiful sunken paths lined with embankment walls to the heights of Beauport Abbey, where you can discover the deciduous and coniferous woods that dominate the site. You then descend towards the abbey, which you can see from the reed bed accessible via a walkway on stilts. You then reach Cruckin Island via the dyke and salt meadows. From there, you have a superb view of Guilben Point, Saint-Riom Island and the Mez Goëlo Islands.

From the port of Paimpol, once famous as the departure point for the Grand Cod Fishery with the Terre-Neuvas, and now known for its "Sailors' Songs" festival, we set off for Pointe de l'Arcouest, where the pier for the Île de Bréhat is located, and then on to Loguivy-de-la-Mer. We leave the shores of the English Channel for the mouth of the Trieux. Finally, after crossing the Pointe, we return to Paimpol to explore its pedestrianised streets.

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. After Paimpol, the seaside town, comes Paimpol, the vegetable garden. The green-grey of the cabbage and artichoke fields. The little paths take us back to the old town where we can stroll, refresh ourselves or enjoy a crêpe.

This short hike follows the coastal path (GR®34) and allows you to discover the incredible story of the Shelburn Network. This organisation, rooted in the Plouhatine community, enabled 144 people to escape to England in 1944. You will follow in the footsteps of the airmen who travelled these paths in the dark nights of the occupation.

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.

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. At the lowest point, the beaches of Port Moguer and Gwin zegal are particularly enjoyable. You leave theGR®34before reaching Palus beach, and old sunken paths lead back to small roads that pass through pretty villages to return to the starting point.

This route offers beautiful panoramic views of the mouth of the Trieux, Bréhat, Île Saint-Riom, Pointe de Bilfot, and the entire coastline from Pointe de Guilben to Paimpol Bay.

This hike can be split into two parts: a 9 km loop to the north-west, which includes Bonaparte Beach, and a second 6.5 km loop to the south, which offers views of Pointe de Plouha. Both loops follow theGR®34coastal path and include some ascents and descents that may be difficult for inexperienced hikers.

This rural route in Goëlo, along a hilly route, half of which is in the woods, offers the chance to discover elements of heritage of great historical interest, such as the Saint-Jacques Chapel and the Lanleff Temple.Please note that from Crec'h Lanleff onwards, the route is not signposted, so it is essential to use the Visorando app with its GPS pin. This walk is best done between May and October as the route can be very muddy.

Plouha is home to the highest cliffs in Brittany. They can be seen from theGR®34.

You will enjoy splendid panoramic views of the Bréhat Archipelago.

Second part of the Trieux estuary, starting from its mouth near Loguivy.

If you take this hike, even during the tourist season, you will encounter few people as it follows the island's shoreline as closely as possible. However, you will see all the island's must-see sights: Guerzido Beach, Paon Lighthouse, Saint-Michel Chapel, Birlot Mill, the Fort... This hike should be done with the help of a GPS or the Visorando app, which is the price you pay for getting off the beaten track. If necessary, there will always be a helpful sign to guide you back to the harbour.

Bréhat, an island known for its flowers; it has its own micro-climate that favours the growth of amazing, abundant and exotic flora. Bréhat is 3.5 km long and 1.5 km across at its widest point and consists in fact of two islands attached by a single stone bridge. Its proximity to the mainland, 15 minutes by boat, makes it a major destination for a day trip for walkers.

A hike that begins with a gentle climb on a tarmac road, allowing you to warm up before following the GR®34, which is more rugged. The last third of the hike offers breathtaking views of the sea as you pass by Pointe de Plouha (the highest cliff in Brittany). Like any circular, it can also be done in the opposite direction, thus avoiding a descent down stairs that may be considered problematic. In this case, you will need to make a significant effort from the outset.

A lovely hike starting from Palus Beach, which will take you along the customs officers' path to the Port of Gwin Zégal with its distinctive mooring posts, which are almost unique in the region. The passage through Pointe de Plouha and Le Pommier offers magnificent views of the coast and the highest coastal cliffs in Brittany. The return journey is along rural roads through various typical hamlets and beautiful forest paths.

This route was used for the first edition of the 24h du Sport de Plouha. Starting from the superb Plage du Palus, it runs alongside Le Corzic and climbs gently up an old sunken path to Pointe de Plouha. From there, the view is magnificent. You then descend back to Palus via theGR®34.

We are now on theGR®34, a long-distance hiking trail dear to the Bretons as it runs along the entire coastline of our region. On this hike, we follow it northwards and, when we leave it, cross Le Paradis and finally rejoin it to admire the Trieux estuary.
