Vol 2 Morlaix to Benodet

Together these detailed guides will give a comprehensive picture of the best coastal walking in Brittany. Each contains directions, maps, features, sights, details of accommodation and services, as well as planning advice for getting the most out of a walking break, whether for a day or a month.

Numerous colour photographs give the flavour of an immensely varied littoral – cliffs, beaches, dunes, estuaries, marshes, promontories and ports. Background features cover aspects such as geology, bird-watching, flora, history, archaeology, legends and economic activities.

Much of the route is based on the famous GR34 coastal path, with full directions and schematic maps for the entire coast-line from the bay of Mont St-Michel to Benodet.
