A path rather than a road that comes across a somewhat unexpected passage with a beautiful view from above.

The Greenway - and the Percée Viaduct - a fascinating story, which can be read on the information panels and is very interesting to me. Here's a translation of Vaduz: Like elegant young ladies striding over the valleys of the Lilliputian kingdom, at the beginning of the 20th century, nine viaducts, including the Parfond de Gouët Viaduct, with their beautiful brick arches, stretched along the very first railway line of the local network, St. Brieuc - Plouha. These engineering structures, built by a native of the region, Louis Harel de La Noë (1852-1931), a bridge and road engineer, allowed the small train of the Côtes-du-Nord to follow the winding and steep coastline without much effort. Lightness and elegance are the words that come to mind when describing the architecture of this 1903 building, characterized by numerous columns and arched vaults and its masonry in warm brick colors. The techniques used demonstrate boldness, ingenuity, and originality: reinforced concrete anchors (rebars) were installed to increase the compressive strength of the pillars and prevent cracks.

You can end this outing with a drink at the port of Paimpol. There are two lovely terraces at the end of the day: Terre Neuvas or La Falaise!

A very beautiful monastery ruin. All descriptions of the individual sights are multilingual, so you can get by very well even without sufficient knowledge of French.

From here you can admire the breathtaking views of this charming coastal hamlet nestled in a quiet bay. As you cycle along the rugged paths, you will see the turquoise waters and sandy beach below, framed by lush vegetation and cliffs. Bréhec is a peaceful place where you can take a break and appreciate its picturesque harbour and traditional Breton houses which add to the beauty of the landscape of this high place.
