Holidays in Brittany: Worth a trip all year round


Brittany is one of the most beautiful regions in France. It inspires with a magnificent coast and a beautiful hinterland that invites you to go hiking. Not to be forgotten is the Breton cuisine, which makes the heart of every fish lover beat faster.


Brittany as a perfect destination for active people

Good reasons for a holiday in Brittany are the picturesque, rugged coast with its rugged cliffs and various activities that the westernmost tip of France offers. Vacationers can explore the coast by boat. If you are looking for relaxation in between, you will also find beautiful beaches for swimming and relaxing, such as Plage des Grands Sables. The offshore islands of Brittany such as Île de Groix or Saint-Nicolas also offer active holidaymakers many opportunities, such as sailing or diving. Those who like hiking will find many beautiful hiking trails on the Côte de Granit Rose, in the Brocéliande forest or in the Monts d'Arrée.


Pure nature in Brittany

Nature lovers will get their money's worth in Brittany. A lush display of flowers with yellow gorse inland and numerous small carnations on the coast can be seen in spring and summer. In autumn, the heather blossom bathes the landscape in a delicate purple or pink. In every season, the sea inspires with its numerous shades of blue, which conveys a little Caribbean flair. At the Montes Arrees inland, the landscape is barren but beautiful nonetheless. It offers an impressive view. The untouched, legendary green forests leave room for imagination.


Celebrations and good food

Brittany, with its tough but warm people, likes to party. Various festivals take place throughout the year, such as the Panorama Festival with rock, rap and electro in April, the scallop festival in April, the Fête de la Bretagne with concerts and exhibitions in May or the Festival Interceltique, the largest Celtic festival in the world, in August. The highlights of Breton cuisine are fish and seafood, freshly put on the table. Even those who like it sweeter will be delighted. For them there are crepes and galettes in numerous variants.
