Departing from Crozon railway station, this loop follows the roads of one of the most popular and wildest wonders of Brittany. The tour of the peninsula via Cap de la Chèvre is among the most beautiful and emblematic landscapes of Armorica.
After leaving town, the coast is always a few pedal strokes from the peninsula. You head west, towards Lostmarc’h and La Palue, two beaches well known to the locals. Their dune expanse is a protected natural treasure that is home to a rich plant and animal life.
After the authentic town of Saint-Hernot, you take a panoramic road and quickly reach Cap de la Chèvre and its semaphore. The return via the west facade offers an equally extraordinary spectacle. As soon as you see the coast, a landscape combining turquoise water and variations of green and pink is revealed.
And if you want to cool off, why not stop at Morgat beach, a long strip of sand sheltered from the westerly winds? From there you quickly return to the center of Crozon.
