Activity description

From Brest, enjoy a 3-day hike on the Crozon peninsula and accommodation on a half-board sailing boat!

If you dream of combining hiking, meeting a local, and unusual accommodation, this activity is for you! A real micro-adventure between land and sea, this activity allows you to be accompanied by a sailboat throughout your hike on the Crozon peninsula. It is also a human adventure, during which you will meet a local boater, ambassador of his region.

No need to take all your belongings with you during your hike, you can leave them in the boat! This ensures that you can enjoy the trip to the full, with just what you need for the day in your bag. You don't need to bring more than a picnic lunch either, as breakfast and dinner on the boat are included in the half-board package! In addition to this, you will get to know the Crozon peninsula well thanks to the advice of your boater host!

In concrete terms, you will take possession of the yacht in Brest and share a first meal with your host the evening before your departure. After a first night in the boat, you will have breakfast before leaving for a hike from Roscanvel to Camaret-Sur-Mer. On the programme: pine trees, steep cliffs, turquoise water and charming villages! In short, a real hiker's paradise! Be prepared to be amazed! During the hike, you will be able to admire the magnificent coastal scenery and, above all, take the time to enjoy every interest point : forts, the Notre-Dame de Rocamadour chapel, the heritage house, and many others! On your return, you can relax in the sailboat and/or enjoy the landscapes while waiting for dinner.

Your third day will start with a good breakfast on the boat. Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to do a 10km loop around Camaret-sur-mer. You will be charmed by this small town, its colourful houses and of course its Vauban Tower, listed as a Unesco heritage site. You will also discover Coecilian Manor and the Lagatjar alignments!

Don't wait any longer, book your 3-day hike on the Crozon peninsula from Brest and discover Brittany's coast in a unique and authentic way!
