(S/E) From the car park at Porz-Louz (or Porslous) beach (glass recycling bin), go up the road on the left towards Porslous, leaving the coastal path on your left and ignoring the first road on the right towards Porslous.
(1) At the information sign for Telgruc-sur-Mer, turn right towards Porlous and Lanjulite.
Yellow PR markings (mainly signposts at intersections and yellow markings, which are sometimes scarce in certain areas).
At the end of the hamlet, at the first signpost, turn left and follow this small uphill road. Pass the Kergoualc'h farm and arrive at a crossroads.
(2) Take the farm track opposite, then leave it on the right onto a wide grassy path. Continue along this path for about 900m and turn right onto a stony path to reach a small road.
(3) Turn left at a right angle onto this road, which continues to climb, leaving a path on the right towards the hamlet of Elfen (on the map). At the stop sign, turn right again at a right angle for about 100m, then take the road on the left and follow it to the D887 at Croas Séméno, crossing a car park (pottery and second-hand shops).
(4) Carefully cross the D887, take the path on the left that goes around the Point Vert shop and arrive at the old Carhaix-Camaret railway line. Follow this beautiful path for about 2 km to reach the old Telgruc station on your left. Notice the occasional drainage structures, which indicate that the old railway line was slightly higher than the path you are following.
(5) Cross a small road and continue along the railway line.
Alternative route to the church (see Practical Information)
(7) After the next road crossing, near the hamlet of Lintan, keep left to find the path, which is initially grassy along the edge of the fields, then the railway line (the purplePR® trail is a little unclear). Continue to the hamlet of Pen ar Run, where a sign indicates an imposing dolmen 20 metres to the left.
(8) Retrace your steps, leaving the hamlet behind you, continue to the left and first turn right then left at the road to continue along the stony path that passes to the left of the Kerguestoc property. At the next crossroads, turn right downhill and follow the path that veers left at the bottom of the descent.
(9) After about 800 metres, you will come to a crossroads marked by two signs.
Follow the sign for Pont de Launay 200 metres to the right. Reach the bridge and cross it.
(10) At the end of the bridge, descend to the right along a discreet path that leads to the Aber river, offering a panoramic view of this two-level bridge: the upper level for the railway and the lower level for agricultural machinery. Climb back up onto the bridge and return to the crossroads.
(9) Turn right, walk along an orchard, then turn left at a right angle to begin climbing a path that is initially grassy, then stony and rutted. Follow the small road that leads to the D887.
(11) Cross the D887 carefully and take the abandoned road on the left near the Hascoet garage. Near a bus shelter, turn right, signposted Ty ar C'hant - lodge, walk along a small pond on your left where three fake ducks are still present and follow the wide path that winds through the countryside, climbing steadily towards the houses of Douar an Abad. The last climb, after a right-angle bend, is steeper.
(12) Turn right and follow the road for a few metres. At the three-way junction, turn left onto Rue Kleguer Bihan.
(13) Turn left at a right angle for a steep climb (sign for Tour de Telgruc Traez Beleg). There are few markings here. Cut across a first path, then a second, and continue straight ahead, ignoring the yellow markings as severalPR® trails meet here. Walk past a campsite on your left and continue down a fairly steep slope.
(14) Turn left and then follow the signs for "Chemin de la Plage" (Beach Path), which takes you through narrow streets.
(15) Leave the beach path along the stream on your right and climb up opposite towards the Moulin du Luzéoc, visible on the hill (ruined mill on the map), and turn left to reach it. Descend via the small road that leads to the hamlet of Le Ped, where you turn right to reach the large beach of Trez Bellec (Plage du Curé). The picnic tables invite you to take a break in front of this beautiful beach.
GR 34 white and red markings (relatively discreet on the coastal path)
(16) Follow the low wall that borders the beach or, at low tide, walk along this beach, which is about 1 km long. You will reach the nautical centre, which is also a stopover lodge.
(17) Go up to the right on the coastal path (distance sign), follow this path lined with blackthorn and gorse (in bloom in April) and continue towards Pointe du Bellec (view of Île de l'Aber and, behind it, Morgat). Follow this narrow path which heads east. It overlooks a jagged coastline and several coves. You are now in wild rabbit country, so watch out for holes dug everywhere.
(18) The path joins a short stretch of road; follow it for a few metres. At the "no exit" sign written in several languages, turn right to go around a large property and continue along the path further back from the cliff. Descend to the bottom of a small valley where a stream flows.
(19) Cross this small stream without any difficulty and climb up the other side of the coastal path. Go around a few large properties and arrive at the small road you took at the start. Turn right and descend to the car park (S/E).
