Hiking

 

Hiking is one of the most popular and privileged ways to discover Belle-Île: the hiking trail allows you to walk all around the island (which represents more than 80 kilometers of hiking trails) in 4 to 6 days, but it’s also possible to do what we call “randonnees en boucle” (loop hikes), these loop hikes will offer some different landscapes because they will allow you to discover the inside of the island and its small villages.
