Heading for Morbihan

This section of the famous "customs path" starts in Riec sur Bélon, then passes through Moëlan-sur-Mer and ends at the Saint Maurice bridge, between Clohars-Carnoët and Guidel.

Considered to be the most seafaring of France's long-distance footpaths (GR), it runs for over 2,000km along the coast of Brittany. Well-known for its red and white markings, the route has the advantage of being accessible to everyone. The GR®34 offers magnificent views of the coastline, whether you're doing a short Sunday stroll over a few kilometres, a ½-day loop hike or a multi-day itinerary.
