This granitic outcrop in the western end of Europe is made of two rocky peaks (pointe du Raz and Pointe du Van), that had nearly become the victim of their own fame. The breathtaking panorama,  celebrated by Flaubert and Victor Hugo, famous french writers of the 19th century, attracted millions of people treading the soil and heavily damaging the traditional  vegetation. Luckily, thanks to a large remediation-program, the area has regained its former untamed glory. Undesirable constructions have now disappeared and visitors are welcomed in reasonable ways, avoiding danger to the environment. Thanks to this exemplary salvage operation, that falls within the frameworks of sustainable development, the site has recently received the label: Grand Site de France. It is  possible to stroll anew along wild heather and beautiful gorse bushes and enjoy the boundless view over the “Baie des Trépassés”,( the bay of the departed) that has so often been disastrous to seafarers because of a dreadful conjunction of reefs and violent currents. In the heart of the moorland and in the shelter of rocky cavities, the fauna and flora have taken up life in perfect harmony again on the piece of land at the edge of the world. For those who don't resist the thrill of the search for the “last rock before the ocean”, guided tours are possible in complete safety. Dare if you're not dizzy...
On the open sea, a tiny spot of land in the middle of the wide ocean, the île of Sein, appeals as a shiny jewel, lit by the famous “Armen” lighthouse, among others.
