The route
From the centre of the little port of Plouguerneau, ride down through town to the sea. Our cycle route then follows the contours of the coast, on roads shared with light, motorized traffic. Along the way, there are many spots from which to admire the wider Aber Wrach area, with mighty lighthouses and an archipelago out to sea. Consider leaving your bike at the various junctions with the national GR® 34 hiking path – also called the Sentier des Douaniers (or Coast Guards’ Trail) – to walk along sections of path leading to the tips of the string of headlands around Plouguerneau.
Take care riding from the Chapelle du Traon to Lannilis, as the cycle route meanders along a narrow, busy road shared with motorized traffic. Once over the Pont de Paluden bridge, there’s a fair climb to reach the town of Lannilis before joining a busier road again. Between Lannilis and Landéda, there’s a mix of stretches specially laid out for cyclists and of roads shared with motorized traffic, generally light.
