GR®380 Loop of the Monts d'Arrée

(Finistère, Côtes-d'Armor)

The GR®380, traversing the wild and mystical heart of Armorican Brittany, crosses schist ridges and low-lying moors dominated by iconic peaks such as Roc'h Ruz and Mont Saint-Michel de Brasparts. The landscapes, often compared to the Irish steppes, offer 360° panoramas of Finistère, revealing a rugged terrain shaped by the erosion of the Armorican Massif. History and heritage mark this route, from the famous parish enclosures—jewels of 16th-century Breton religious art—to the industrial remains of former slate quarries. The trail crosses the Yeun Elez peat bogs, a place steeped in legend, said to be the gateway to hell (the Gates of Ankou). Between the granite boulders of Huelgoat and the windswept ridges, hikers will find themselves amidst rare biodiversity, home to harriers and curlews.
