Hiking enthusiasts, take note: Brittany is the hikers’ paradise! Put your hiking shoes on and explore the GR34 coastal path in Southern Finistère: from Concarneau to Pont-Aven, crossing Tregunc, Névez and going along the Aven river… Between river and ocean, beaches and coves, cliffs and lighthouses, every moment is a delight! Have a nice nature getaway on our paths!
The GR34 runs alongside the whole breton coast and merges with the famous coastal path. Also called the coastal control pathway, it starts from the Mont-Saint-Michel and ends in Saint-Nazaire in Loire-Atlantique: it therefore crosses four breton departments with its 2000 km of trails (that is to say over 600 hours of walk!) and is exclusively allowed to pedestrians.
In South Finistère, the GR34 passes by Trégunc, Névez and Pont-Aven. With its magnificent landscapes, the scenery is constantly changing along the coastal path! Rocky shores, wild river banks, little typical breton ports and picturesque villages… Every second is an amazement.
Dear hikers, with 35 km of coastal pathways on our territory, you will love our destination!
