Pointe du Van

Highlight • Viewpoint

Less known than the Pointe du Raz, the Pointe du Van is nevertheless just as beautiful. The view from its rocky promontory is magnificent.

It's in the eye of the beholder...but, for me personally, it's even more beautiful and wilder than the overcrowded neighboring Cape

View of Pointe du Raz

Highlight • Other

The end of the world is particularly marvelous here: Pointe du Raz, the lighthouse, then the Île de Sein disappears. America lies behind it somewhere.

Road Tro Breizh 2023 - Saint Theix Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

This chapel on the cliff has something eerie about it, as if it were meant to be a bulwark against invaders from the sea

August 19, 2023,kleine Runde am Pointe Du Van | Bretagne
The day before yesterday we reached Brittany and yesterday we finally reached the coast - unfortunately in the rain with stormy gusts. Today the weather cooperated. First we made a short stop at Pointe Du Van. Before we went on a longer coastal hike after another short stopover. You can find the other tours in my collection: komoot.de/collection/2361931

Showing Translation

The Pointe du Van (Breton: Beg ar Vann) is a rocky promontory on Cap Sizun in the far west of Brittany.

An easy walk from the free parking lot.

The weather was typically Breton, cloudy, but dry except for the occasional light drizzle. The Chapel of Saint-They was unfortunately closed.
