Ménez-Hom
Menez C'hom
An isolated hill at the entrance to the Crozon Peninsula, rising 330 metres, with a summit view over the Brest roadstead and Douarnenez Bay.
Ménez-Hom is one of the highest points in western Brittany, and paragliders often take off from its heathland slopes. You can drive to a car park near the summit and walk the last 10 minutes to the top. On a clear day you can see the Crozon Peninsula, the Monts d'Arrée and the sea. A traditional festival is held here every year on 15 August.
