Route of Sainte-Barbe and Saint-Fiacre chapels in Le Faouët
Starting from the 16th-century market halls of Le Faouët, this route climbs up a very pretty rocky path to the Sainte-Barbe plateau, where you can discover the site of the Sainte Barbe Chapel, built between 1489 and 1512. The site is known for its pardon. The path descends towards the fountain and the banks of the Ellé, a fast-flowing river winding between two steep banks. The path follows the river, then heads through the woods towards the Saint-Fiacre Chapel. Built between 1450 and 1480 in a flamboyant Gothic style, it has a splendid polychrome wooden rood screen. The climb back up to the village is through the woods, passing through the beautiful hamlet of Kerly.
The Ellé Valley around Sainte-Barbe
Another walk to recharge your batteries in the heart of nature for hikers who are not afraid of having to bend down to avoid fallen trees and springs that wet the paths.
To the west of Le Faouët, the Ellé flows through a fairly narrow, wooded valley with rocks on either side and in the riverbed. At the top, along the valley, are picturesque hamlets and, above all, the Sainte-Barbe Chapel.
