Arzano shines on the best of both Britain: Finistère and Morbihan. At the foot of the hiking trails and only a stone's throw from the Atlantic Ocean, Arzano is an ideal holiday destination for those who seek to combine the charm of the campaign and the delights of the sea
Country legend and history, Arzano and its environs will meet all of your expectations. Heritage is an exceptionally rich, lively all year by a population very attached to its culture. The proximity of the ocean, the valleys of Scorff and the Laïta are a source of endless entertainment, whether you like hiking (GR 34), or if you prefer instead the delights of water.
