Sentier des douaniers

Reviewed By MarielaD14 - Focsani, Romania

Opened in 1907, Sentier des Douaniers is the ideal way to discover Ploumanac ' H and its impressive rock-sculpted cliffs of nature. Book half a day on foot to go on this circuit, considered one of the major natural sites of the region. At sundown, the pink granite seems to be on fire.

Grand Site Naturel de Ploumanac'h

Reviewed By Tour564785

Incredibly beautiful, whatever the weather. With children, Perros-Guirec is the best place I ever visited to spend healthy holidays, to reconnect with nature, in a breathtaking environment. Everyone will find ones pleasure, revitalizing baths in the sea at beautiful sandy beaches, sailing (with dolphins possibly!), fishing, walking, surfing, visiting 16th century chapels, playing golf at St Samson golf course, enjoying fantastic restaurants with sea view, and many more things. If you are tired of crowded beaches of Southern France and prefer the family simplicity and discretion of Brittany, do not hesitate anymore. If you are lucky enough and can rent a Villa "Belle Epoque" (20') for you and your family or friends, go for it, they are just stunning with their pink granite stone and sea view.

Cap d'Erquy

Reviewed By Kreeshmw

We were staying at Les Pins campsite nearby and decided to take a coastal walk as a family (12 and 9 year old) having heard that Brittany’s coastline needs to be seen to be believed! We were not disappointed! We asked about paths in Erquy tourist office and the staff were very helpful, recommending the Plages Sauvages trail in particular, advising us to stick to the names on the signs rather than the colours of the trails - on the maps the different trails are different colours, but on the signs they’re all yellow for some odd reason! The walk took us up on to the hilltop right next to the most stunning scenery of little harbours, an emerald seascape and incredible beaches as well as a hidden lake. The weather started to turn so we took a shortcut back (well sign posted and easily found) but we spent a good two hours exploring the beautiful landscape and scenery. There were some rocky bits, but I would say that the walk is easily doable for able bodied people. There are well signposted alternatives for wheelchair and buggy users. Highly recommended if you’re in this area.

Fort La Latte

The Castle of Roche Goyon, also called Fort La Latte, is a castle located on the tip of the Latte, near Cap Frehel in the department of Cotes-d'Armor in the municipality of Plevenon in the bay of Saint-Malo. Remarkable for its location on a rocky cape, facing the sea, it served as a backdrop for several films. The castle of Roche-Goyon was built in the fourteenth century by the lord of Matignon, Stephen III Gouon. The construction of the castle began in the 1340s, its keep dates from 1365-1370. In 1379, after the exile of the Duke of Brittany John IV, the castle was besieged by Bertrand Du Guesclin. It was not until the eighteenth century, under Louis XIV, that the castle regains its strategic interest. It will serve until the end of the First Empire where the evolution of military techniques led to its inadaptability. From 1892, it was sold to various private owners before being bought by an enthusiast Frederic Jouon Des Longrais in 1931 who undertook heavy restoration work.

Already while approaching the Fort via Hiking path you get fabulous views on the castle. The entrance fee is 6,50 for adults - not cheap, yet everything is in good order and you stroll around and get a good impression of medivial life (although of course a bit limited because of COVID). A highlight is the view from the tower.

Cap Frehel

Reviewed By Bree_Guitta - Dublin, Ireland

Very nice spot, not too crowded (due to Covid?) Beautiful view of the cliffs. Nice to have an easy walk (you can do more if you like!). To get up the lighthouse you have to pay 3€ but its‘ worth it. Parking fee is 3€ for 3 hours (longer stay not possible) and keep 3€ in coins ready,it‘s easier and faster to pay this way.
