Description of the walk

(S/E) With your back to the Anse de Rospico car park, walk up the road for about 300 metres until you reach a crossroads.

YellowPR® markings on signposts

(1) Turn right onto a slightly uphill path, ignore a road on your left and continue straight ahead. The path curves to the left and joins a street. Follow it until you reach the Rospico road.

(2) Turn left, cross carefully and a few metres further on enter the village of Kérascoët with its thatched cottages. Walk through the village, taking the time to admire the beautiful thatched cottages. Shortly before the exit, note the imposing bread oven on your left.

There are no real signposts (just a few mountain bike signposts).

(3) At the exit of the hamlet, turn right and follow this small road. At the end of this road, turn right twice towards Trérorvézen. Continue straight ahead to reach the imposing Chapel of the "Trois-Marie" in Trémorvezen.

(4) Retrace your steps and turn right into the first cul-de-sac (painting exhibition sign on the left). This cul-de-sac becomes a grassy path after a small house with red shutters and an adjoining gate.

At the crossroads, turn right at a right angle and continue. Pass through a wetland area and come out onto a street. Cross over and continue along the path opposite. Look out for a small fountain on the left (not shown on the IGN map) and you will arrive at a road near some recycling bins.

(5) Turn left, walk along the imposing "Les Deux Fontaines" campsite on your right, then a small lake with various exotic ducks on your left. At the end, continue along the path that crosses a road and continue straight ahead. At the three-way junction, turn right then left before Kervaillet (offset from the purple route on the IGN map).

Cross the road at Kerstalen and continue along the cul-de-sac. Continue along a path through a warren area and head towards the coastal path, using the landmark as a guide. View of Raguénez Island and its beach, as well as Île Verte further out to sea.

GR® 34 and GRE9 markings (white and red)

(6) Take the coastal path heading due east (signposted Anse de Rospico 2.6km) and follow this coastal path dotted with benches and a few picnic tables set back slightly on the hillside. Pass Tahiti beach with its car park (local name), recognisable by its totem pole on the left, on the hill. Cross a stream and continue along a more rocky coastline. Soon, Anse de Rospico comes into view. You will arrive at the end of a concrete road.

(7) Turn right onto a steep path that descends to the bottom of the cove. This is the only difficult part of the route, which can be avoided (see "Practical information"). When you reach the road, turn right to return to the car park (S/E).

This is an ideal hike for families, both for the scenery and the duration and variety of points of interest, even with young children (aged two and a half). We stopped for a picnic on the beach. Please be very vigilant with children along the coastal path.
