La Motte-Marcillé route
La Motte-Marcillé is the name of a feudal motte. This short walk will introduce you to the village’s architectural and natural heritage. From the church, you’ll head out into the countryside along charming little paths.
Route de la Poterie à Landry
The city of Rennes has no shortage of green spaces, as evidenced by this route which passes through two parks and small gardens. This route offers a lovely, relaxing stroll right in the heart of the city, with very few tarmac paths.
Route of the two chapels in Boisgervilly
Walk through the countryside around Boisgervilly. Flat terrain, with no difficulty. A few awkward sections, particularly tall grass, during certain seasons.
Places to see: the two chapels, the Chapel of Saint-Antoine and the Chapel of Notre-Dame de Bon Secours.
Route of the manor houses in Saint-Uniac
A short walk through the countryside around Saint-Uniac, featuring a few grassy paths and partly following the GR®37. No particular difficulty. Don’t miss the church in the village, the Quénétain Manor and the Saint-Uniac Fountain.
Route de Montauban-de-Bretagne
A green corridor fed by the River Garun, a park, and country paths around the railway line and the station. The end of the route is more residential but nonetheless interesting as you follow the GR®37.
Route du Petit Tertre in Rouillac
A lovely little route with plenty of small roads in the heart of the Méné region, presenting no particular difficulty. There are some lovely views along the undulating roads starting from Étang du Hérisson, which you can walk all the way round.
Route des Molives in Miniac-sous-Bécherel
Quite a few quiet roads and sunken lanes (best used in dry weather). Lovely views of the surrounding countryside. Signposting (blue square on a yellow background) is a bit dated, and there are a few signs still indicating the route. I have also included various possible alternatives in the description to avoid unmaintained sunken lanes.
Route of the stones and moors of Mégrit
Mainly small roads and dirt tracks, very few footpaths. The route offers views of a few stone crosses. Yellow markings (on wooden signs or posts), but the markings are old and in some places non-existent.
The Picotous Route in Mégrit
A short route that follows a number of paths through the woods, which are not always easy to follow as there are several paths. The route can also be started from the church, where there is a car park and toilets.
Route from Le Coudray to Languédias
There are quite a few crosses and granite buildings along this route , which takes you along small roads, sunken lanes and paths through the woods. No particular difficulty.
Route de la Colonne des Trente
Set in the heart of the countryside, this route takes you along a number of easily accessible dirt tracks, small roads and a few grassy paths and sunken lanes on either side of the RN24.
Route des Croix in Guillac
A route that takes you past several crosses located within the town. It also takes you close to the Nantes–Brest Canal, which is always a pleasant walk in fine weather.
Route de la Forge in Saint-Launeuc
A short route offering views of the Étang de la Hardouinais with its leisure centre, as well as the estate of the same name. The village is also worth a visit, with its charming little church and beautifully decorated hotel-restaurant.
The Duc’s Route in Merdrignac
A short route on the outskirts of Le Mené, combining town, countryside, lakes and the Greenway. The route also follows part of the GRP® du Petit Mené.
The Perfaux Route in Saint-Vran
The first part of the route is the most interesting, with beautiful menhirs to discover, a (private) castle and a chapel. There are also small rock formations here, those of Quémelin.
Route from Montafilan to Plélan-le-Petit
The first part of the route is very interesting, passing through the Montafilan valley (although some sections are overgrown with ferns, so it is sometimes better to go round via the adjacent fields), an old wash house and a14th-century manor house. The second part, after the Montafilan Valley, follows rather long dirt tracks before returning to the centre of Plélan-le-Petit.
The Ecce Homo route in Trédaniel
This route takes you up the Chemin de Justice (the Ecce Homo), the path along which those condemned to death were dragged by cart from the castle to be hanged. You also pass close to chapels and ponds, through woodland and a beautiful green valley.
Route through the ages in Plémy
The route follows small, undulating roads, passing a few crosses, chapels and very old houses. After the hamlet of Carfort, the landscape changes, featuring woodland, moorland and a consistently undulating terrain.
Route from Saint-Gobrien to Guillac
A route offering beautiful green landscapes, partly near the Nantes–Brest Canal, which you follow along the GR® 37. Old chapels, churches and crosses also dot this route, which will undoubtedly give you a real change of scenery.
The Fief de Thélin Route
A typical route in the Brocéliande region with rolling moorland landscapes and narrow paths disappearing into the woods and climbing rocky outcrops. Lovely views over the Forest of Paimpont and the moors of Coëtquidan.
Ropenard Valley Route in Loutehel
A very pretty route, particularly in the two valleys where you really feel as though you’re in Brocéliande , with its steep-sided valleys, rocks and streams that guide you for much of your walk. Signposts along the route explain the history of the village.
The Lovers’ Route in Chevaigné
A short, picturesque walk along the Ille-et-Rance Canal and via the Chemin des Amoureux. The route alternates between small roads and dirt tracks through the bocage. The paths can be very wet in winter due to the proximity of the canal.
Route around Saint-Brieuc-de-Mauron
With its sunken lanes, narrow country roads, traditional hamlets and religious heritage, this route offers a glimpse of the village near the Forest of Brocéliande. The route alternates between hedgerow paths, farm tracks, quiet country lanes and sections passing by local architectural heritage. A walk with no major difficulties, featuring gentle terrain and a few slight inclines.
The Faluns Route around Le Quiou
This easy route takes you on a journey of discovery through the Pays des Faluns, combining the Greenway, local heritage and landscapes shaped by the ancient Faluns Sea. The route offers a pleasant and accessible walk, ideal for a family outing.
