Where is the best coastal walking?
If you want to spend a few days walking the coastal path, the most spectacular sections are the Pink Granite coast in Cotes dArmor for its extraordinary rock formations, or for something wilder and more naturally dramatic, try the Crozon peninsula on the Atlantic coast of Finistere. You will certainly get a greater sense of freedom and fewer fellow-walkers on the latter stretch. Other suggestions: around Cap Frehel in the north and the Pointe du Van in the west. Many areas of coastline are unfortunately spoilt by a chain of hideous modern houses built right on the cliff-top: the southern coastline and much of north-west Brittany suffers from this regrettable phenomenon.
