Granite quarries

Perros-Guirec

About

The pink stones of La Clarté have been used since the start of the twentieth century and are characterised by their excellent quality. On your visit to this quarry, find out about the means used to mine the pink granite reserves going back a century and the changes in techniques, and learn a bit of geology. You can also continue your walk into the Traouïero valley and see the columns of an old bridge crane at Kergomar. These are the remains of the David Quarry, mined until the war.
