Your guided walking holiday in Brittany with Grand Angle

Why explore Brittany with a guide?

Choosing a guided walking holiday in Brittany gives you the luxury of focusing on what matters: walking and discovering. Our guides know the region inside out and introduce you to its hidden corners, far beyond the beaten track. They share the history of its chapels, the legends surrounding its standing stones and the rich variety of local wildlife and plants. By leaving the organisation of your holiday to Grand Angle, you are free from logistical concerns (accommodation, transfers and meals), allowing you to immerse yourself fully and safely in the region on a small-group trip.

Friendly group holidays to discover Brittany

Brittany has many different sides, and so do our guided trips.

Whether you are drawn to spectacular landscapes or looking for tranquillity, we have designed itineraries suited to exploring together as a group.

• Brittany’s classic highlights: Explore iconic places such as the Pink Granite Coast, the Crozon Peninsula and the Gulf of Morbihan. These trips offer an excellent introduction to the treasures of Brittany.
• Walking and wellness: Combine the benefits of walking with seawater treatments on our walking and wellness holidays, an ideal way to recharge.
• Celebrate the festive season differently: For a different way to end the year, discover our New Year’s Eve walking holidays. Experience the magic of the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel or the cliffs of Cap Fréhel in a festive, friendly atmosphere.

Practical tips for your trek in Brittany

When should you go walking in Brittany?

Brittany is a lovely place to explore throughout the year, but spring and autumn offer particularly beautiful light and fewer visitors. Spring is an ideal time to travel in France, when nature awakens and flowers line the trails. Summer brings long days and warm sunshine, always tempered by the sea breeze.

How challenging are the walks?

Our guided walking holidays in France and Brittany are generally suitable for people who walk regularly. The Customs Officers' Path (GR®34) has no major technical difficulties, but it can involve a series of ascents and descents that require a good level of fitness. Each holiday description explains the required level in detail to help you choose the trip that suits you.

Beyond guided walking holidays in Brittany

Travellers who enjoy Brittany’s trails often find a similar atmosphere along the coast of Normandy or on the walking trails of Ireland. These destinations share a strong maritime culture and striking coastal landscapes. Brittany is also a wonderful destination for cycle touring; discover our cycling holidays in Brittany for another way to explore the region. And for those who prefer independence, several of our itineraries, such as the walk around Belle-Île-en-Mer, are also available as self-guided holidays.
