GR®34: Red and white markings.
Turn left onto the Esplanade Jim Sévellec, which continues as the coastal path: (GR®34markings and orange dots for the path). Follow it towards Pointe du Grand Gouin.
(1) Continue towards Pointe du Toulinguet, passing close to Porzh Naye beach.
(2) At a car park, turn left to follow a small road leading to Anse de Pen Hat. Do not continue along the path that climbs towards the semaphore enclosure (military land, no entry). The IGN map is inaccurate at this point.
(3) Walk along the dune, following the path that climbs towards Pointe de Pen Hir. Just before the Battle of the Atlantic Memorial Museum, turn right to cross the Kerbonn battery and climb the steps to the left of the museum
(4) Go round it and head towards Pointe de Pen Hir, passing close to the Free French Memorial.
(5) At the headland, you can enjoy a superb view of the Tas de Pois.
(6) After going round the headland, head down towards Veryac’h Beach following the coastal path.
(7) Cross the car park and take the stony path overlooking the large beach.
At low tide, it is best to walk via Veryac’h Beach and Lam Saoz Beach. You will then walk along the cliffs, which are classified as a Geological Nature Reserve. A path leads back up to the car park.
(8) Walk above the small Lam Saoz Beach and continue along the path which climbs steadily towards Pointe de la Tavelle.
(9) Continue towards Pointe de Portzen, which you’ll leave on your right. Shortly after this headland, leave theGR®® and the coastal path (barrier or what remains of it).
PR®® markings: Yellow.
(10) Turn left onto a new path which leads to a small road near the village of Kerguélen.
In this village, turn left and continue along the road which passes through the village of Lannilien, where you turn right.
(11) At the exit, on the left, is the little Chapel of Saint-Julien, an ideal spot for a break in the shade. Return to the road and follow it to the left to join the D8 near a picnic area.
(12) Follow this road, turning left. This road is very busy in summer, so take care! Continue for about 300 m and, after a house, turn right onto a grassy path and follow it. It joins a road which you cross to continue straight ahead.
(13) Cross another road, the D55, and continue straight on to reach the hamlet of Rigonou. Go round it on the right, then turn left and then right onto a small, shaded path which you follow to the D355 road to Quelern.
