Nice place to rest - opposite the monument to Charles de Gaulle.

Warning, a very “butt-slapping” section of track

Nice trails, but very muddy area, even flooded in the wet season.

Les Ateliers des Capucins is an enormous 19th century workshop complex that belonged to the naval shipyard. It is located on the high bank above la Penfeld, right next to the historic shipyard on Rue Saint Malo. The complex is the starting point of a modern cable car that takes you to the center on the other side of the river (Place de la Liberté/Rue de Siam) with a view of the city panorama. Even from the equally huge observation terrace you have a fantastic view of the shipyard and the panorama. The gigantic interior is unique: the heart of the complex is huge open spaces with wonderfully smooth floors, where children can skate, ride scooters or play under the glass roofs. Here and there relics from the industrial past are set up: a blacksmith's hammer, a huge ship's propeller, a gigantic lathe. The highlight is the white and gold state barge Napoleon I, displayed in a corner under a mirrored ceiling, with raised oars, a veritable crown and all kinds of golden sea creatures. The bow is decorated - as befits an emperor - by Poseidon himself. To the side of the hall there is a theater, a cinema, a climbing park, a large cultural library, a restaurant passage, a small brewery, co-working spaces and much more.

Somewhat hidden, only accessible via narrow streets, lies an enormous concrete block in the military port of Brest: between 1940 and 1944, the largest submarine repair yard ever was built here by the Todt Organization using forced labor. It was 330 meters long, 180 meters wide with 10 dry docks and 5 additional boxes for three submarines each. The bunker was hit by 80 air raids. Only a specially developed super-heavy bomb called Tallboy, weighing 5.4 tons, succeeded in breaking through the reinforced concrete corner, which was ultimately more than 6 meters thick. Even after the war, the structure proved to be indestructible and was and is ultimately still used by the French Navy. The facility is still a military area, and a visit is not possible (contrary to what the Internet says otherwise) (this is information from the gate guard). Above the military area, however, there is a narrow one-way street on the slope, the Route de la Corniche (in the direction of the bunker), from which you have a good view of the facility, the shipyards, modern warships moored there and the bunker itself. Thankfully, there is an accompanying footpath and cycle path along the fence and various parking bays as well as a car park next to the bunker, which also allows access to the stone beach. If you walk along the high fence on the Route de la Corniche, you will suddenly notice a familiar blue and yellow sign: the road is part of a French Way of St. James to Santiago de Compostela.
