Plourin-lès-Morlaix walks

Explore the narrow streets and traditional houses of Morlaix, then follow the Morlaix-Carhaix greenway and the Jarlot and Tromorgant valleys.

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.

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

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

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.

Mountains in Brittany? It's possible. Despite their low altitude, the Monts d'Arrée offer a real mountain setting with rocks emerging from the moorland. This route along the mountain ridges will immerse you in a landscape of heather, gorse and rocky ridges similar to those found in Ireland or Wales. Please note: Since the fires of summer 2022, a municipal decree prohibits passage through the peat bog before the point (10). The circular is currently impossible.

Roc'h ar Feunteun, Roc'h Trédudon, Roc'h Trévézel, a line of jagged ridges. In the heart of the Armorique Regional Nature Park, the Monts d'Arrée rise up in a landscape of moors, heather and gorse. These landscapes give off a surprising impression, marked by unreality, mystery and authenticity, which we know well in inland Brittany.

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.

This route allows you to discover the banks and estuary of the Penzé. Beautiful views of Morlaix Bay await you. Magnificent views of Saint-Pol-de-Léon, the Port of Roscoff, Callot Island and Carantec.

The coastal path in the commune of Carantec, a circular route starting from Henvic.

Starting from the village of Henvic, this circular route will take you to the foot of the railway viaduct on the Morlaix–Roscoff line, passing through fields and along the banks of the Penzé.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Setting off from Plestin-les-Grèves, you very quickly catch sight of Grève Saint-Michel, where, at low tide, the English Channel recedes into the horizon, creating a vast expanse for all kinds of wind sports: sand yachting, windsurfing, kite flying, etc... Then, following theGR®34, you walk along the Corniche de l’Armorique, discovering Lannion Bay and the mouth of the Douron. Opposite lies Locquirec and Finistère. History is also present in the form of the Gallo-Roman thermal baths.

A charming little stroll on Callot Island in Northern Brittany. Pleasant beaches and a beautiful granite chapel, perched on a hill, enhance the walk. The island is home to a few houses, but above all a superb little chapel, visible from afar because it's perched on a hillock. The granite chapel is open to visitors. The walk is enhanced by beautiful beaches, as the northern part of the island is rather wild.

Between the 16th and 18th centuries, thanks to linen weaving, Commana enjoyed a period of prosperity, which explains the richness of its parish enclosure. From the village, dominated by its 57-metre-high bell tower, the view stretches north to the Léon plateau and south to the ridges of the Monts d'Arrée. This route along the ridges and through the countryside takes you to the 14-metre-long Mougau Bihan covered walkway, a beautiful peat bog with an interpretive route, and old slate quarries.

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

Long and beautiful walk overlooking the bay, with some difficulties due to the length and elevation gain.

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.

This easy hike will take you from one side of the Locquirec headland to the other, following the left bank of the Douron estuary, then through the countryside, vegetable fields and pretty valleys hiding small streams, until you reach the north-western coast of the headland. The GR® 34 offers beautiful views from the rocky points of Corbeau and Château. You will also walk along beautiful beaches, such as Sables Blancs, Porz Biliec and Fond de la Baie, where you can walk along the shore as you please, depending on the tide. You will also pass through part of Locquirec, where you can admire the church, the narrow streets, the small harbour and the seafront, which you will follow to the end.

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!

The Pointe de Locquirec offers wonderful landscapes! From Pointe Blanche, the whole bay of Locquirec opens up to walkers, with a different landscape depending on the sea level, followed by the beauty of Kerboulic and its second homes, bursting with sunshine on the Plage des Sables Blancs and Pointe du Corbeau, and finally ending with Pointe du Château and the small port of Locquirec.

Starting from the beautiful Mougau Bihan covered walkway in Commana, this route crosses the nearby peat bog and then climbs up to a ridge on Mont-d'Arrée. Following this ridge, you reach the shores of Lake Drennec before returning along small country roads.
