Plougrescant

The Gouffre: a natural wonder

Plougrescant is famous for its Gouffre, where the sea crashes between two towering rocks framing a tiny stone house. This postcard-perfect scene is one of the most photographed views in the region.

Untamed coastal beauty

Here, the coastline is wild and dramatic. Trails like the Ajoncs d’Or Path lead you along windswept cliffs, through moorlands and rock formations sculpted by the sea and time. The GR34 hiking trail runs through Plougrescant, offering stunning views over the English Channel.

A peaceful village

The village itself is quiet and charming, featuring a twisted-spire church and typical Breton stone houses — the perfect stop for a tranquil break between coastal hikes.
