A pleasant circular walk, featuring two unmarked forest trails. Unless you are a hiker who has already completed the route, the use of a GPS is recommended.

However, given the sometimes narrow width of the paths and the number of junctions encountered, it is advisable to familiarise yourself with the map to help you find your way if necessary.The route was established in 2015. Its route was slightly modified in March 2023 to avoid a dense area of fallen trees, and then in May 2026, near the Gourvineg mill, a bridge over the Condat, which had been weakened by flooding, was removed.

A lovely walk that allows you to discover the countryside around the very pretty village of La Vraie-Croix.
A walk through the moors south of Sulniac
The village of Sulniac lies hidden behind the first rolling hills that rise a few dozen kilometres inland from the Morbihan coast. These hills form the southern edge of the Landes de Lanvaux. The proposed route winds through a landscape that alternates between cool, damp valleys and dry or wooded moorland. The granite that forms its bedrock is also the source of the rich architectural heritage found here.
The Marle tour
At the gates of Vannes, the Gulf of Morbihan narrows to form a stretch of water crossed by the Marle, an inlet that serves the city's port. It would not be possible to go around it if the Vannes public transport managers had not thought of chartering a ferry between Pointe de Conleau and Barrarac'h to cross this narrow stretch of sea. Then all you have to do is follow the shore to return to the starting point. However, be sure to check beforehand whether the ferry service is operating (usually from April to October).
As this stretch of water is subject to the tides and it takes a good four hours to walk around it, you will have plenty of time to see how the landscape changes with the sea level. It is therefore impossible to get bored.
The Roz Ponds
To the north-east of Pontivy, the Nantes–Brest Canal, on the River Douric, is fed by a series of ‘ponds’ which are in fact man-made basins designed to maintain a stable water level during lock operations.This route takes you past this succession of locks and ‘ponds’, passing by the Chapelle du Roz.A short, peaceful and tranquil walk along the water’s edge.

The return trip via Sainte-Avoye offers the opportunity to visit a beautiful16th-century chapel.
Route des Vertus in Berric
This is a lovely country walk starting from Berric.

But they must be pleasant in all seasons!
