Anse de Sordan walks

A beautiful route that initially follows the edge of Lake Guerlédan via theGR® 341, then climbs up to the Butte de Malvran, which overlooks the surrounding area.

A lovely hike that allows you to discover the shores of Lake Guerlédan. Start at Anse de Sordan and walk back up to Bon Repos Abbey.

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.
