[Summary] |
From Beg Melen to Quelhuit. |
 |
La partie Nord-Ouest de l'île est une des plus sauvages. Une grande lande, de belles falaises, un sémaphore, et des oiseaux partout, car c'est leur territoire. Aussi quelques arbres, qui timidement apparaissent au nord. Parmi eux, des pommiers sauvages.
 Northwestern is one of the wildest parts of the island. A wide moor, beautiful cliffs, a semaphore, and birds everywhere, because this is their territory. Also a few trees, which timidly appear in the north. Among them, wild apple-trees. |
