Audierne / Pouldreuzic (Penhors)
Wild nature and breathtaking scenery are the order of the day on this stage of the coastal cycle route. From Audierne, in the Goyen estuary, the cycle route moves slightly away from the coast for the first few kilometers, before approaching it again in the commune of Plouhinec, where it skirts the prehistoric site of Menez Drégan, an ancient collapsed sea cave. You pass the cove of Pors Poulhan, which marks the end of Cap Sizun and the beginning of Pays Bigouden. The stage ends at the large beach of Penhors, popular with surfers.
