Tréguier walks
The banks of the Guindy, the Kélomad Chapel and an old railway line
From Tréguier, the town of Ernest Renan and capital of Trégor with its Saint-Yves Cathedral, come and stroll along the Guindy. You will then discover the small Kélomad Chapel, rebuilt in the early 19th century, and walk along the old Nord-Trégor railway line.
Tréguier and its surroundings
During this walk, you will discover Tréguier with its Saint-Yves cathedral, narrow cobbled streets and stone houses, including that of Ernest Renan, a famous writer of the late 19th century. You will also enjoy the banks of the Guindy, a small river that flows into the Jaudy. As both rivers are subject to tidal influences, it is advisable to set off an hour before high tide to make the most of the scenery.
Around the Roche Jaune
What could be more unusual than a hike in the bed of an estuary? What could be more romantic than a walk up the bed of a rushing stream? What could be more relaxing than a stroll through the green countryside of Trégor? What could be more spectacular than a panoramic view of an estuary?
You will discover all this during this walk, which we recommend you do at high tide with low or medium coefficients (below 80).
