| One of the finest stretches of coastal scenery in the whole world runs along the north coast of Brittany from Lannion in the west to Paimpol in the east. The picture shows "the best of the best", namely the part of the Breton Corniche around the resort of Ploumanach. A walk along the coastal customs-men path (Sentier des Douaniers) passes numerous large pink rocks sculpted into amazing shapes by wind and rain.
The area around Ploumanach includes the mediaeval town of Lannion, the up-market resort of Perros-Guirec, the pretty town of Tréguier (with the tomb of St.Yves) and the numerous splendid Brehat Islands near Paimpol (so like Britain's Scilly Isles). |
