The Sillon de Talbert

An almost metaphysical experience in Brittany between the sea and the sky

The Sillon de Talbert is a long point of sand and pebbles that juts out into the sea. It is 3 kilometers long and 35 meters wide. It is a funny experience because there is no real path, you have to walk along the sea on pebbles (the walk is not easy) and at the end of the point there is not much else but you, the sky and the sea. If you come on a weekday without tourists you will experience the same sensations as the first explorers of the moon. In short, if you like meditation and contact with the elements you will love the Sillon de Talbert.
