The Renote Peninsula

An iodized hike

If you are constantly hesitating between land and sea, we know a hike in Brittany that should please you: the tour of the Renote Peninsula! On the beach of Trégastel, the starting point of the hike, you can start to feel the terrain. One foot in the water, the other in the sand, walk along the customs path around the peninsula. As you walk, pink rocks with strange shapes appear. A crab claw, a dice, a painter’s palette… Yes, hikes in Brittany are always full of surprises!

The next part of the trail takes you to the end of the peninsula where a breathtaking view of the 7 islands archipelago awaits you. And although you always have your foot on the ground, we advise you to hang on, it can sometimes be very windy!
