► THE PAGAN COUNTRY

The campsite is situated close to the Pontusval lighthouse on the Beg Pol Cape.

This place lies in the heart of the ‘pagan country’, a rocky area stretching from the Bay of Goulven in the East to the Bay of Trez Sezny in the West.

This region is named ‘pagan country’ after the pagan peasants who lived in this area. By stormy weather, they were said to light fires on the coast in order to mislead the sailors and pluder the wrecks.

Besides, the local history is full of legends mixing deep faith and superstitions : spirits, dragons and korrigans are well-known here.
