    Boconnec is in the middle of western Brittany, 6 km south-east of the little town of Rostrenen, 5 km south of Plouguernével.

    Rostrenen is easy to find on a road map, on the N 164 road and in the south-west corner of the département des Côtes d'Armor, not far from the neighbouring départements of Finistère and Morbihan.



A LITTLE PROBLEM HOWEVER,
THE NEAREST ROAD HAS TWO DIFFERENT NUMBERS :
"D 31" in Côtes d'Armor and on old maps, "D 764" in Morbihan.










2.5 kms south of Boconnec, the Nantes to Brest canal was built in the 19th C.
Its first purpose was to secure communications with the French Navy harbour of Brest
without taking the risk of British Navy attacks in the English Channel !
    It is now a renowned place for leisure walking and fishing.
