Hiking holidays on the coast of legends between Morlaix and Brignogan

Day 1 - Arrival in MORLAIX

Sandwiched between three hills and dominated by an enormous viaduct, the town of Morlaix stretches along two rivers that join to form the Dossen at Morlaix. Visit old Morlaix, with its narrow streets and magnificent medieval houses. Night and breakfast in a 2-star hotel.

Day 2 - MORLAIX - CARANTEC (23 km)

Leaving the city of Morlaix along the river, the trail rises through the countryside. You'll reach the small village of Loquénolé, clinging to the side of the valley and protected from the westerly winds. It enjoys a micro-climate and is home to exceptional, luxuriant vegetation. From the village you'll continue along the Bay of Morlaix to reach the Clouet beach before Carantec. This seaside resort is famous for its beautiful beaches and cliffs, which offer magnificent scenery. The many islets off Carentec are home to a large bird sanctuary, where tens of thousands of seabirds live peacefully. Night and breakfast in a 3-star hotel.

Day 3 - CARENTEC - ROSCOFF (24 km)

This trail follows the shoreline, then crosses the Pont de la Corde bridge over the deep-sided Penzi River. Via the Plage de Kervigou, you'll reach Saint Pol de Léon, a city of character and seaside resort. This former episcopal city boasts two superb religious buildings, the cathedral in pure Gothic style and Notre Dame du Kreisker, whose spire, a veritable lace of stone, rises to 78 m! The old town is home to some beautiful Renaissance granite mansions not to be missed. After your visit, you can continue your stroll through fields of artichokes and cauliflowers as the path leads away from the sea. After a few beaches and cliffs, you'll reach Roscoff, a former shipowner's town. In addition to its narrow streets, Roscoff boasts a rich religious heritage, with the Notre Dame church and small 16th and 17th century chapels. Dinner, overnight stay and breakfast in a 3-star hotel.

Day 4 - Visit to BATZ ISLAND

This morning you'll set sail for this discreet island, which has managed to retain its originality and charm. You'll discover a wide range of landscapes, from dunes and wetlands to pebble beaches. The island has retained its agricultural vocation, with numerous fields of cauliflowers and potatoes, and is still home to a fishing fleet. You'll visit the chapel of Sainte Anne, then climb the 200 steps to the island's lighthouse for an extraordinary panoramic view of the island and its coastline. Stroll through the exotic garden, which boasts 2,000 species from every continent, including an exceptional collection of palm trees. The tourist office also offers a walking tour of the island, so don't hesitate to visit them. Dinner, overnight stay and breakfast in the same hotel.

Day 5 - ROSCOFF - MOGUIEREC (21 km)

Discover an even wilder coastline along the beaches. After Roscoff, don't miss the islet of Roch Kroum, a Bronze Age necropolis with thirty coffin tombs.

Dinner, overnight stay and breakfast in a 3-star hotel.

Day 6 - MOGUIREC - PONT CHRIST (20 km).
