on the customs path
A weekend at Cap Fréhel was the perfect opportunity to walk the GR34, the emblematic path of Brittany, also called the Sentier des Douaniers.
Once the car was parked in the Fort La Latte car park, it took us 1h30 (photo breaks included) to reach the Cap Fréhel lighthouse, before turning around. On the way, the steep coastline dotted with flowering heather offers us a superb symphony of colors. We quickly understand why the GR34 was elected favorite GR of the French in 2018!
After 2h30 of walking, we can now affirm it: 9 kilometers on foot wears your shoes down a bit, but it builds your calves!
