May 11, 2023,Bretagne: Rosa Granitküste und Traouiero-Tal

Perros-Guirec exudes the charm of a seaside resort. Next to the marina there are restaurants, boutiques, bars and all kinds of shops for tourist needs. Above the coastline there are chic hotels, villas and residences for the slightly heavier purse. From there we start today's hike, which first takes us along well-developed paths along the beautiful Côte de Granit rosé. …

From Perros-Guirec we went along the pink granite coast, from Ploumanac'h through the Vallée des Grands Traouiero and back to Perros-Guirec.
A highly recommended hike, which of course also attracts many other hikers.

The 300 million year old pink granite rocks at Ploumanac'h are always worth a visit. Of course, all visitors to Brittany know this and populate the wide paths between the bizarre rock formations on the stretch of coast. Like a sea of rocks, the granite formations extend over about 25 hectares and shine in the sun.

Beautiful tourist walk. In the forest there are many fallen trees that lie across the paths. Lots of climbing and scrambling and looking for an alternative path.
But with komoot it works!

Be careful, the actual route around waypoint 2 is closed but a warning is easily overlooked. Fallen trees prevent you from moving forward. The first coastal stretch is completely overcrowded. If it's summer, set off early!

Crossing the forest is very complicated and even dangerous because many trees are across the paths
