A short circular walk to discover the covered alleys listed as Historic Monuments, then the Daoulas Gorges in a somewhat wild rocky environment. A complete change of scenery guaranteed. As a bonus, and for a short 1 km detour, I suggest you visit the ruins of Notre-Dame de Bon Repos Abbey.

Departure from Saint-Aignan (Morbihan) (Morbihan)
A superb hike, mostly through woodland, with magnificent views of the lake from the highest points. Some sections of the trail are quite steep – ideal for giving your thighs a good workout – but these are short stretches. Walking poles may be useful for those who find the going a bit tough. There are plenty of lodges and campsites available for an overnight stay. There are seven different starting points; check the lake’s website for details: http://www.lacdeguerledan.com/.The trail is very well signposted with ‘Sentier de Guerlédan’ signposts along the entire route and the red and white markings ofthe GR®® 341 andGR®® 37. A few paths branch off from the main trail to stay close to the lake or climb a little higher into the forest, but they always rejoin the main trail.Please note! The entire route around the lake is open from 1 March to 15 September. Outside this period, sections of the trail are closed for hunting.
