Description of the walk

Park at the Port Niscop car park.

(S/E) Head south-west on the coastal path, go around the shipyard by taking a short section of Rue des Chantiers.

(1) At the fork, take the path on the right and continue along the shipyard.
Be careful on the steep steps, which are not very wide
Continue along the low wall separating the pond and the Rivière d'Étel and continue along Impasse de Ploumédic. When you reach the car park, take the path on the right.

(2) Continue along the coastal path, passing Pointe de Royanec, the orientation table and Pointe de Roquenec.

(3) Take the street for 30 m and turn right again onto the path.

(4) Continue along the fairly narrow path and go straight ahead onto Impasse de Poulguénan for 30 m, then continue along the coastal path on the right.
Follow the coastal path along the Rivière du Sac'h for 1.7 km until you reach the Moulin du Bignac.

(5) Retrace your steps and take the coastal path on the right that runs alongside the Étang du Bignac. At the fork, keep to the right and walk to the Route de Larmor.

(6) At the end of the path, take the Route de Larmor on the left for 300 m, then turn right onto the path to reach the Venelle de Mané Bras.

(7) Continue straight ahead and, at 18 Rue des Chantiers, take the path on the left to return to the port of Niscop (S/E).

The route is rated as easy, but there is a very rocky section and it is not suitable for people who have difficulty walking.
The scenery is magnificent and the route is easy to follow.

A lovely walk, very well signposted and fairly quiet (late in the summer season); it can be done either way. I’d recommend doing it so that you finish by the sea rather than in the village; it’s more rewarding.

A very pleasant route, very easy to follow. Quite busy at this time of year in August, with the sun beating down.

A lovely, well-signposted walk, not very long, best enjoyed with the family, preferably at high tide

A lovely walk – whether it’s high or low tide, sunshine or rain – it’s simply magnificent and a real pleasure to do, time and time again

Coastal path, woodland, countryside – a perfect route, with very little tarmac (unavoidable) towards the end.
What do people have against low tide? It’s magnificent, it’s full of life, and you see far more birds…
