Walking holiday - France

[daniel22]

Firstly, apologies for posting another new thread lol. It's possible I'm a tad obsessive....
My mum is an avid walker, and for her 60th next year I'd like to take her away on a walking trip - maybe 3-4 days, to the north of France, around Brittany area. But I dont have £2000 laying around which is what a lot of sites are quoting.

Does anyone know of any online places that help with the booking? I don't mind self-navigating - we'll likely follow the coast - but it'd be nice to have accomodation set up in the evenings. Or do you think its a case of plotting the route and booking things myself individually?
Anyone else done a trip round there? I'd love to hear your experiences if so

You could start here https://www.tourismebretagne.com/selon-mes-envies/topitos/randonnees-en-itinerance-en-bretagne/


It gives suggested routes, what to see, where to eat and where to sleep.

If you click on the little French flag on the top right of the front page you can get this

Then you can see how good your French is!

Aye, I found that. Looks like it'll take a decent amount of planning!

Well after much browsing I have found what I hope to be a good trip! 4 days on Mont Blanc next year, guided tour with nice accom and some food. No baggage transfer though, so will be packing very light!

Reading your original post, that is a fair way from Britanny or is there a Mont Blanc there too?  Hope Mum enjoys it!

Haha, might make her walk the whole way from Brittany to Mont Blanc. Can still practice my french there at least
