The Morbihan Gulf, situated in
Brittany, near the town of Auray, South of Brest offers wonderful
trekking along the coast.
You can hike for days along the beaches
and the coast enjoying wonderful views, pretty villages and
beautiful towns.
We suggest just a very easy and short
walk starting from the pretty and touristy town of Auray.
The walk starts at Port de St Goustan along the
Loch, the river ending in the Gulf of Mobihan.
It is a short walk, long only 3,5 km
but it offers good views along the river and ends in the beautiful
village of Le Bono, that is certainly worth a visit.
After having visited Port de St Goustan and the town of
Auray you will follow the river keeping the water on your right and
walking South.
The path leaves the town and runs along
the water offering wonderful views towards the fields some beautiful
villas.
Finally the path reaches the village of
Le Bono from where, after enjoyed some rest at its beautiful harbour,
you can walk back towards Auray.
Enjoy the photos taken along the path and plan your walk in the gulf of Morbihan.
