HIKING
The GR®34 long-distance footpath, also called the Custom Officer’s path (‘Sentier des Douaniers’), is an extraordinary route that takes in the whole of the Breton coastline. Whether you’re a dedicated hiker or just enjoy a nice walk, you’ll feast your eyes along this trail, which was recently voted France’s favourite long-distance footpath. It’s a chance to turn your lens towards magical, sea-sprayed landscapes that are worthy of any picture postcard.
CYCLING
This is an ideal place for mountain biking, as there are many marked trails, but it is also ideal for amateurs, as the terrain is very flat and the ride is therefore pleasant
DIVING
South Finistère offers magnificent diving spots suitable for amateurs or experienced divers. Please note: you need a minimum of training and physical condition to enjoy the underwater world.
