The walk starts below the café.
A very pretty walk, not very busy and short, ideal for a late summer afternoon.

⚑Departure from Saint-James (Manche)
This easy and very pleasant route along the banks of the Beuvron was suggested by the Saint-James Children's Municipal Council. It also passes close to the American military cemetery, allowing for a short extension to the walk.

⚑Departure from Monthault (Ille-et-Vilaine)
The Monthault rock is a place where two beliefs coexist: come and discover some Celtic legends which, thanks to the presence of distinctive rocks, have survived the centuries, with the Chapel of Notre-Dame as its neighbour – the final stage of a Way of the Cross through the woods.

↔6.53 mi ↗+98 ft ↘-72 ft ◔3h 05 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Vains (Manche)
In the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel, a hike mostly along the coastal path, along the salt marshes. On either side of the Grouin du Sud, you can enjoy a superb view of Mont Saint-Michel and, from the point itself, the spectacle of the rising tide is impressive. Returning inland, you can visit the beautiful and moving Romanesque chapel of the Priory of Saint-Léonard.

Walking The Morinais route

Le circuit de la Morinais
↔8.25 mi ↗+308 ft ↘-305 ft ◔4h 05 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Louvigné-du-Désert (Ille-et-Vilaine)
Several quarries dot this route. Whether they are still in operation, such as the Morinais quarry, or partly overgrown with vegetation, they all seem to still echo with the hammering sounds of decades past. The granite quarried here was used for roadworks, by funeral firms, and also in local architecture. The mysterious beauty of the Morinaye manor house and the typical rural houses in the villages you will pass through bear witness to this.

Walking The descent from Mont Noël along the Ruisseau des Échelles

⚑Departure from Montours (Ille-et-Vilaine)
On the edge of the Coglais, a charming route combining a walk along a stream with paths through green hills and sunken lanes.

Walking At the edge of the Gâtines, starting from La-Selle-en-Coglès

Visorando Member
↔12.75 mi ↗+282 ft ↘-289 ft ◔6h 05 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from La Selle-en-Coglès (Ille-et-Vilaine)
This circuit symbolically unites two regions by linking the Moulin de Champ Pinel (Brittany) to the Moulin de Roche Garé (Normandy), as this is where the Tronçon river marks the departmental and therefore regional boundary. You will pass through a variety of landscapes as you walk along a beautiful section of the Bois de Gâtines forest and alongside the Château du Rocher Portail, not forgetting to take the opportunity to discover the village of La-Selle-en-Coglès (the monastery of the North).

⚑Departure from Genêts (Manche)
In the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel, a hike mainly along the coastal path with an almost permanent view of the bay and the Mont. From the tip of the Grouin du Sud, the spectacle of the rising tide is superb. A loop inland allows you to visit the beautiful and moving Romanesque chapel of the Prieuré Saint-Léonard.
