Trévou-Tréguignec walks

Three circular routes to suit everyone's needs, but all of them allow you to discover the Trégorrois region and the coast.

This hike in Trégor is not particularly difficult. After following the coast along the customs officers' path and catching a glimpse of Île des Femmes and Île Saint-Gildas, you will discover Port Blanc before heading inland to explore the Trestel marshes.

Between the communes of Penvénan and Trévou Tréguignec, the circuit takes you from Port Blanc to Plage du Royau, where you'll discover a beautiful coastline and local history.

Hike in the Louannec countryside, among cows and coconut fields, then along the coastal path and beach.

A short hike to enjoy with the family. The sea and countryside are on the agenda.

The Buguéles foreshore is a labyrinth of over 2,000 hectares, covered at high tide but accessible at low tide. It is a maze of rocks around six main islands, some of which are inhabited, criss-crossed by paths of varying clarity. A delight for discovery, for the views, for photos. The circular walk returns via sunken paths under the trees. At high tide: refrain from walking on the foreshore.

While the GR®34 or "Sentier des Douaniers" is one of the best-known walks in the region, impressive with its piles of pink granite, some of which reach 20 metres in height, the Vallée des Traouïéros is more secret but remains a magical world with the Maison des Korrigans, the Auge du Lépreux, the Trou de l'Enfer and its caves. The route proposed here takes you "from pink to green" as close to nature as possible, with a touch of grey from the slate roofs of Breton houses. This is definitely a hike that will show you all the colours of the rainbow!

Start with an urban walk to discover La Clarté and part of Perros-Guirec, then continue along the Pink Granite Coast via the Chemin des Douaniers and finish at Ploumanac'h, voted "France's favourite village" in 2015.

Ploumanac'h, "France's favourite village in 2015", is a small touristic harbour linking up with Perros-Guirec. It's the city of pink granite, as visitors can discover in the sculpture park (being redeveloped in 2016). The "sentier des douaniers" (GR®34), the "Tertre de la Clarté", the small sandy beaches of "La Bastille" and "Saint-Guirec" with its oratory and chapel, and the chaos of granite heaps are the main sights.

This hike offers stunning views of the rocks sculpted by the sea over the centuries. You can imagine Napoleon, Mayan masks, dolphins... You'll shiver at the edge of the Castel Meur chasm. Let yourself be carried away by these sublime landscapes.

This walk through the heritage of Rospez is offered by the "heritage" group of the "Ro'Spered" association. The remarkable sites linked together are very diverse: parish church, chapels, fountain, crosses or calvaries, flax scutching machine, Bronze Age tumulus, restored wash house... crossroads of three Roman roads... A hike through the Rospez countryside, discovering the remains of a past dating back nearly three millennia...

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.

An emblematic site in the Côtes d'Armor region, the Pink Granite Coast stretches roughly from Trébeurden to Paimpol. This hike in Ploumanac'h offers a chance to discover part of it. Winding through the "chaos" and following the Douaniers trail and the GR®34, you'll discover one of Brittany's most magnificent landscapes, shaped by majestic pink granite rocks of all shapes and sizes. There are only three places like it in the world: Brittany, Corsica and China.

The Pointe de Plougrescant is recognised around the world due to Castel-Meur: the house between the rocks. The hike starts at Saint-Gonery Chapel, equally famous for its crooked lead bell tower. The hike continues via the Baie de l'Enfer where you can admire the Jaudy estuary, then on to Pointe du Château - the most northerly point of this route - to see Castel Meur (private property) and finally to discover the gulf before returning to the departure point along the west coast of the point.

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.

Hike in the Trégastel forest with its stream winding through various clusters of granite boulders.

Along with the pink granite chaos, the Vallée des Traouïéro is the region's second most popular tourist site. It consists of two steep-sided valleys through which the Kérougant river winds its way before separating and joining the natural harbour of Ploumanac'h. This stream forms the natural boundary between the municipalities of Perros-Guirec and Trégastel. The Petit-Traouïero flows into the Ploumanac'h ice mill (Milin Ru), while the Grand-Traouïero flows into the Trégastel wheat mill (Milin Glaz).

This circuit takes you almost all the way around the commune of Trégastel. Trégastel is the second commune that, together with neighbouring Perros-Guirec, forms the pink granite coast. From the start to the (5), the route follows theGR®34and therefore the customs officers' path, known here as the coastal path, with a short detour around Île Renote. Special feature: as it runs along the coast, the circuit has very little elevation gain.

A wide variety of landscapes on this long circular route: countryside, moors, cool valley, beaches and hamlets with, of course, the famous pink granite rocks scattered everywhere.Useful Visorando app

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).

This route takes you on a tour of the different faces of the Plougrescant coastline, with a variety of landscapes. The islands of Loaven and Er, which punctuate the Jaudy estuary, are the scene of major oyster-farming activity at low tide. At high tide, the islands are popular for water sports, especially kayaking.Then there's the rugged coastline of the northern tip, where raw nature and moorland take on their full character.

Located between the beautiful white sandy beaches of Trégastel and the "chaos" of Ploumanach, this short hike explores the Pink Granite Coast going around Renote Island. Among the majestic pink granite rocks and vegetation you will discover beautiful landscapes sculpted by erosion.

At high tide, the Léguer reaches its maximum level. The landscape is then truly beautiful, provided the sun is shining. The green of the trees is reflected among the boats on the blue water. At low tide, the landscape is different and the bottom of the Léguer, which is sometimes muddy, gives this coastal river a different appearance.

Downstream from Lannion, the Léguer is fed by several streams: the Porz al Lan, the Kerlouzouen and the Pontol. After following the Léguer, we invite you to explore these streams, which are part of the charm of this region. All that remains is to let your imagination take you back in time to when the various mills along the banks were still in operation, washing flax and hemp and, in some cases, grinding wheat.

Walking through a pine forest, you will follow the Léguer river in its tidal section, so the landscape is more pleasant at high tide.You will walk to the Pointe du Yaudet to discover the mouth of the Léguer and then the Baie de la Vierge.On the way back, after following the small meanders of the river (the Yaudet), you will pass not far from the Château de Kerninon (private property, not open to visitors) and descend towards the Léguer.

A sea and land circuit on the wild peninsula, to discover the mouth of the Jaudy and the oldest granite rocks in France, at Port-Béni (1.7 billion years old). Always check the tide times.

A very short hike that starts off the trail, following the right bank of the Jaudy estuary. It then quickly heads inland, offering some beautiful views of the sea. At the end of the trail, you can visit a very beautiful covered alley, which is well preserved. N.B. Do not undertake this hike at high tide (see practical information).

There are two historic sites along this walk: Tonquédec Castle with its walls and restoration work, and the magnificent little Kerfons Chapel. All this is complemented by a relaxing walk along the Léguer river.

There is virtually no elevation gain on this walk in the Trégor forest. Just magnificent scenery, starting with paths through chestnut trees, then a walk along the banks of the Léguer, ending with a visit to the imposing ruins of Tonquédec Castle. At the end of the walk, don't forget to visit the village church.
