Pluzunet walks

The Trégor countryside, always rich in peaceful scenery, is at its best during this walk, which presents no difficulty.

There is virtually no elevation gain on this walk in the Trégor forest. Just magnificent scenery, starting with paths through chestnut trees, then a walk along the banks of the Léguer, ending with a visit to the imposing ruins of Tonquédec Castle. At the end of the walk, don't forget to visit the village church.

The chapels of Kerrivoalan and Saint-Gildas on the one hand; but also Kergrist Castle (a private residence open to visitors only in summer) and, of course, the ruins of Tonquédec Castle and its oratory on the other; and finally the mills at Traoumorvan, Kergrist and Kergrot bear witness, throughout this route, to a Brittany that was once warlike, devout and agricultural, but has now become a tourist destination.

Forest paths and sunken lanes lead walkers along the "Sentier des Améthystes" (Amethyst Trail) alongside the Léguer and then the Saint-Éturien stream, before arriving at a centuries-old beech tree. The walk starts and ends at the Chapelle des Sept-Saints: a place of great significance for the friendship between Islam and Christianity.

A refreshing walk through the woods and along the Léguer.

There is virtually no elevation gain on this route, which follows small forest paths alongside a river and stream, allowing you to enjoy the sound of the water and the birdsong. There is no answer to the mystery of the menhirs when faced with this colossus weighing several tonnes, which has stood in this small clearing for over 5,000 years.

Two historic sites along this walk: Tonquédec Castle with its walls and restoration work, and the magnificent little Chapel of Kerfons. All this is complemented by a relaxing stroll along the Léguer.

Although this walk uses a few tarmac roads, priority has been given here to forest paths and tracks open to farm machinery. In return, it offers magnificent scenery both around Poulloguer Pond and along the stream of the same name, with a very pleasant walk through the village of Coatascorn, a quintessential Trégor village with all its stone houses.

The Trégor region boasts a rich religious heritage. This walk allows you to discover several examples, which, whilst not exceptional, are classic in their beauty and aesthetic appeal. This walk also allows you to enjoy the lush countryside and the Breton bocage. Moments of tranquillity and exertion are always welcome in this mild climate.

This walk, suitable for walkers of all ages, takes you through wooded, shaded areas along sunken paths as well as fields and meadows. It features three remarkable sites: the centuries-old beech tree, the Chapel of the Seven Saints and the Saint-Éturien stream, where the lucky ones may find amethyst crystals.

The aim is to follow the course of the Saint-Éturien stream and then the Léguer river from Plouaret-Trégor station to Lannion station. Plan to return by train.

This short, easy walk takes you through the Louargat countryside to discover the two menhirs of Pergat, one of which is among the largest in Europe. You’ll follow the Ruisseau du Frout through its valley, which can be quite damp in places, before reaching the hamlet of Manaty. From there, you’ll head into the Koad Bré Forest at the foot of Ménez Bré before reaching Louargat via some lovely forest paths.

The tour of the paper mill valley is a short hike through the forest that runs alongside the Léguer river and passes by the ruins of an old factory and a dam.

This walk through the heritage of Rospez is offered by the "heritage" group of the "Ro'Spered" association. The remarkable sites linked together are very diverse: parish church, chapels, fountain, crosses or calvaries, flax scutching machine, Bronze Age tumulus, restored wash house... crossroads of three Roman roads... A hike through the Rospez countryside, discovering the remains of a past dating back nearly three millennia...

Downstream from Lannion, the Léguer is fed by several streams: the Porz al Lan, the Kerlouzouen and the Pontol. After following the Léguer, we invite you to explore these streams, which are part of the charm of this region. All that remains is to let your imagination take you back in time to when the various mills along the banks were still in operation, washing flax and hemp and, in some cases, grinding wheat.

To the south of Belle-Île-en-Terre, a forest hides many secrets. It comprises two parts separated by the Léguer river: to the east, the Coat an Hay State Forest (Le Bois du Jour) and to the west, the Coat an Noz State Forest (Le Bois de la Nuit). In the latter, with a 19th-century castle undergoing restoration and a former ironworks site (lead mine), the route follows wide paths that are sometimes poorly lit by daylight.

Whilst the level of the Léguer, as it flows through Lannion, is influenced by the tides, further upstream, thanks to several retaining walls, the flow is much more steady. Moreover, the entire area is protected as it serves as a water catchment area for the region. This route therefore offers an exploration of this coastal river, upstream of Lannion, with a return journey through the surrounding hills.

This is a lovely, easy little walk in the countryside around Tréglamus. You will pass from one hamlet to another, travelling along a wide variety of paths (sunken, white, forest, grassy and a little tarmac) and landscapes (forests, stream banks, fields, pastures, etc.).

At high tide, the Léguer reaches its maximum level. The landscape is then truly beautiful, provided the sun is shining. The green of the trees is reflected among the boats on the blue water. At low tide, the landscape is different and the bottom of the Léguer, which is sometimes muddy, gives this coastal river a different appearance.

Walking through a pine forest, you will follow the Léguer river in its tidal section, so the landscape is more pleasant at high tide.You will walk to the Pointe du Yaudet to discover the mouth of the Léguer and then the Baie de la Vierge.On the way back, after following the small meanders of the river (the Yaudet), you will pass not far from the Château de Kerninon (private property, not open to visitors) and descend towards the Léguer.
