Departure from Commana (Finistère)
A varied route where you can discover aspects of the Breton countryside that have changed little over time. Cross moors and woods, pass through isolated hamlets to return to the lake and its landscaped surroundings.

Departure from Plounéour-Ménez (Finistère)
Mountains in Brittany? It's possible.
Despite their low altitude, the Monts d'Arrée offer a real mountain setting with rocks emerging from the moorland.
This route along the mountain ridges will immerse you in a landscape of heather, gorse and rocky ridges similar to those found in Ireland or Wales.
Please note: Since the fires of summer 2022, a municipal decree prohibits passage through the peat bog before the point (10). The circular is currently impossible.

Departure from Le Relecq-Kerhuon (Finistère)
A very varied route with coastal paths, urban cliffs, gardens and shady woods, urban shortcuts and alleyways.
Passages along the Corniche, along the Anse de Kerhuon, a discreet street overlooking Le Relecq and La Rade, Notre Dame du Relecq in the centre, return via the Relecq-Kerhuon greenway along the Domaine de Lossulien (private) then through the alleyways.

Departure from Landerneau (Finistère)
Walk along the Élon as it crosses Landerneau, once a port whose reputation extended beyond the borders of France. Flax, leather and wine were exported throughout Europe. The quays, built in the 17th and 18th centuries, still bear witness to this prosperous period.
Easy route along the towpath and the two quays, Cornouaille and Léon.
Along the route, you will find the Pont de Rohan, one of the last inhabited bridges in Europe, which celebrated its 500th anniversary in 2010.

Easy
Departure from Sizun (Finistère)
At the gateway to the Monts d'Arrée, this is a short, easy and bucolic walk that never strays far from the lake and is shaded by trees. Crossing the floating footbridge adds a nice touch to this walk.
The banks of the Élorn and the Rocher de l'Impératrice

Departure from Plougastel-Daoulas (Finistère)
A route offering varied landscapes: woodland and rocky outcrops, including the Rocher de l'Impératrice, and the banks of the Élorn, a coastal river which flows into Brest harbour, passing under the old Albert Louppe Bridge (or Plougastel Bridge) and the more recent Iroise Bridge. Two small chapels add a touch of heritage.
