About us
A remarkable circuit at the head of the bay, with views over Douarnenez and Cap de la Chèvre on the Crozon peninsula. Along the GR 34, you'll discover the dunes of Sainte-Anne-la-Palud and its chapel, where the annual pardon in honor of Saint Anne (the patron saint of Brittany!) is held in August. Continue along a narrow path back to the Tréfeuntec parking lot, where you'll find the monument to aviator Jean-Marie Le Bris. In the late 1850s, Le Bris built a glider with movable wings known as a "winged boat". After crossing the hamlet of Tréfeuntec, then the village of Kergoasguen, you follow the coastal path and its jagged cliffs. The view is superb!
We love it!
- the path through the dunes and the distinctive scent of the flora
- the breathtaking view from the tip of Beg an Ty Garde
- the heritage features: discover the chapel of Sainte-Anne-la-Palud, catch a glimpse of the manor house of Roz Trefeuntec
- the variety of the route and landscapes, between the gentle dunes and the steeper cliffs...
You can also... do it in 2 parts! (the circuit comprises 2 loops) ... And stop off at one of the seaside restaurants for a delicious meal!
