Plougonven walks

A gateway into Finistère via the Monts d’Arrée: the small medieval town of Plougonven, with its parish enclosure, lies close to the Gaspern forest. At the southern end of this route, two menhirs stand alone in a field.

Guerlesquin, a small town full of character, was known in the 11th century for its fairs. From the 17th century, beautiful buildings remain in the town centre: the Présidial, the Market Halls and the Church. The town is close to the Étang du Guic, where two fine sandy beaches await walkers.After walking around the lake, we explore the nearby forest, moving in turn from Finistère into Côtes-d’Armor before returning to Finistère. Indeed, it is the river ‘Le Guic’ that forms the departmental boundary.

This is a short, easy route that takes you through the village and allows you to discover the fully restored Saint-Agapit Church, the Porz Meur Tumulus, which probably dates back to the Bronze Age, and the surrounding countryside.

A picturesque walk through woods and fields with panoramic views of Morlaix Bay.

This is an easy walk, except for the distance, which combines sunken paths and wide forest lanes, as well as chapels and castles, not to mention streams and brooks, with the English Channel as a backdrop.

This hike allows you to discover the Morlaix river and bay from the heights of Locquénolé. Splendid views await you.

Discover the superb panoramic views to the north and south from the summit of the Monts d'Arrée. This fairly strenuous hike takes you across the moorland ridges, through the small village of Plounéour-Ménez, and then along the wooded paths of the forest around La Feuillée.

Hike along the banks of the Douron: nature, birds, tranquillity. The Saint-Haran circular route is part of the chapel route.

Discover the banks of the Douron, the coastal river that separates the Côtes d'Armor and Finistère departments. Right from the start, you will have to cross a pass: the Col de Saint-Haran (24 metres!), as indicated on the sign at the top. You will cross into a different department when you cross the bridge next to the Moulin de Moualhic, and again at Pont Menou.

A beautiful hike, much of it taking place along the seafront corniche. Along the way, you can add a visit to a Gallo-Roman site and take a refreshing dip!

This hike takes you from the foot of the Monts d'Arrée to the ridge, which rises to 385 m, with superb panoramic views on both sides.

The commune of Tréduder is bounded by three streams: to the west, the Roscoat; to the south, the Dour Plat, which flows into the Yar, marking the commune’s eastern boundary. This walk takes you along these streams, but numerous small streams feed into them, making certain sections very wet in spring.

This beautiful circular walk is divided into two parts. The first part follows the customs officers' path and runs along the seafront, passing numerous viewpoints, headlands and beaches until it reaches the banks of the Douron estuary. The second part winds through the countryside of valleys and hamlets, revealing pretty manor houses before reaching its climax at the seaside, at an altitude of 84 metres, at the top of the Grand Rocher, which offers an exceptional view of almost the entire bay of Lannion and the Plestinaise countryside.

On the border between Léon and Cornouaille, at the foot of the Roc'h mountain range (Roc'h Trédudon, Roc'h Trévézel), the iconic backbone of the Monts d'Arrée, La Feuillée, Brittany's highest village, is well worth a visit.

Discover Grève Saint-Michel: a bay where the sea retreats more than 2 km; first by climbing the Grand Rocher for a breathtaking panorama, then, closer up, by walking along the beach, and finally, admiring it from the famousGR®34hiking trail. You will continue to admire Lannion Bay as you skirt around the Pointe de l'Armorique and, more specifically, the Pointe de Plestin, before following the Douron estuary, admiring the chapel and fountain, and returning to Saint-Efflam.

Barnenez is best known for the cairn that dominates the headland and stands out in the landscape. It is also a peninsula that you can walk around. Whether you walk along the Anse de Térenez or the Morlaix River, at high or low tide, you will find yourself in a multifaceted place, with the majestic site of the entrance to the Morlaix River and its iconic monuments as a backdrop.
