Walk along the wild coast in Quiberon

A walk near the city center to discover the wild coast of the peninsula.

Walk along the wild coast in Quiberon (6 kms). Easy walk without difficulty. The coast is beautiful with its cliffs and its small creeks. On the other hand, the path runs a little too close to the road, which spoils the pleasure a little. On the other hand, there are many small parking lots to stop and it is easy to visit the whole wild coast by car.

The coastal path is very long, there are many car parks along the path where you can stop. You don't have to do it all in one go.

The wild coast

The wild coast
The beauty of the coast is undeniable, however, the path along it does not fully meet our expectations. It follows the road too closely, which makes us lose the feeling of being in the middle of nature.

Le Vivier

There's a restaurant for those who want to take a break. Don't hesitate to try some seafood at Le Vivier. The welcome and service are impeccable. You can also see the tank that was used to preserve shellfish before shipping (the vivier). It is no longer in use.

The return journey through the moorland is just as interesting as the passage along the coast.
