Book excerpt: Brittany has some of the most dramatic and varied coastline in all Europe, ranging from the weird rock formations of the Pink Granite Coast to the long white sandy beaches and high cliff tops of the Cote d'Emeraude. There are ancient towns to explore and picturesque fishing villages by the score. With its unique language, culture and traditions, Brittany has much to offer the visitor, and for lovers of good food the walk is an epicurean delight. The 360 miles of Path from Morlaix to Mont-Saint-Michel are described in detail. The walk is divided into 9 sections and can be completed in a single trek of about a month's duration or can be split into weekly or fortnightly holidays, or even long weekends. There are also details of 78, mainly circular, walks that are suitable for day walks. Details of accommodation, transport and other facilities are included, plus places of interest and practical information for newcomers to walking in France. The author is a former National Secretary of the Long Distance Walker's Association. He now lives in the Netherlands.
