Hikes in Brittany

Widen your horizons. Take deep breaths. Hiking in Brittany is being at one with the unspoilt nature, the varied and constantly changing landscapes. Open your nostrils to the scents of iodine and chlorophyll, fill up on the wide open spaces! Go wherever you want, with wind in your shoes. Follow a coastal, urban or inland circuit and you’ll be surprised by real encounters, a colony of seagulls, a breath-taking view. Choose the route you prefer, between long stretches of beaches and little ports, the moors and mythical woods. Stock up on little gems. And don’t forget to contemplate… Brittany is at your feet.
