Walking Tours in france

An outright winner from the outset, this walk is simply stunning. The dramatic scenery, wealth of colours and mediaeval influences distinguish it from all other holidays in our programme.

During the first few days of your holiday, you will be walking along the magnificent paths that hug the northern coast. It’s a landscape of pinky-gold cliffs, secret coves, deserted, heather-backed beaches and traditional Bréton fishing villages untouched by tourism. It is perfect for exploring on foot and, at every turn, you’re rewarded with fabulous panoramic views of the entire Emerald Coast.

Heading inland, the route tak es you through the majestic Hunaudaye Forest and along the banks of the river Rance. Highlights include the feudal Fort de la Latte and the beautiful stonecrafted town of Dinan. In the Middle Ages, Dinan served as one of the main strategic strongholds of the Duchy of Brittany and much of her mediaeval charm remains today.

The hotels you stay in are full of contrasts too and include a lovely turn-of-the-century seaside hotel in Pléneuf-Val-André and a superbly located 3-star hotel built into the ramparts in the heart of historic Dinan.
