Guéhenno walks

Starting from Guéhenno, famous for its monumental calvary, the route passes through several hamlets around the River Sédon, as well as through woods and along field edges. Most of the route is on paths and, occasionally, on a few quiet roads.

Dominated by the tall silhouette of the Château de Josselin, the River Oust is one of the sections of the Nantes-Brest Canal. This walk follows the shaded course of the river and leads to the charming Chapelle Saint-Gobrien.

Take a stroll to discover what makes Josselin such a historic place. As you wander through the town's narrow cobbled streets, you can admire the many half-timbered houses, the oldest dating back to 1538, the churches and the castle (entrance fee). A very pleasant walk.

A route offering beautiful green landscapes, partly near the Nantes–Brest Canal, which you follow along the GR® 37. Old chapels, churches and crosses also dot this route, which will undoubtedly give you a real change of scenery.

Circular route starting from Bignan, including the Domaine de Kerguéhennec and, in particular, the Chapelle de la Trinité. This route is marked in yellow.

Set in the heart of the countryside, this route takes you along a number of easily accessible dirt tracks, small roads and a few grassy paths and sunken lanes on either side of the RN24.

A route that takes you past several crosses located within the town. It also takes you close to the Nantes–Brest Canal, which is always a pleasant walk in fine weather.

A short walk south of Colpo with varied scenery.

The moors of Pinieux offered the resistance fighters of the Maquis de la Nouette a fragile shelter during dark times. This wooded area occupies a hilltop between the Claie and Oust valleys and offers some views of eastern Morbihan. And a gem nestles in the hollow of one of the valleys: the Kerfontaine bog. Please note: crossing the bog requires off-track walking.

A short, very well-marked walk in the Vannes countryside. Highlights include: hedgerow landscapes, sunken paths, woodland, a bread oven, the little Saint-Amand Chapel, the hamlets of Grand Gillard and Scourboc, and the village of Monterblanc.

This walk around the pond is very easy: the total elevation gain is less than 25 m. Whilst the start may be a bit monotonous with its 4.2 kilometres along a developed greenway, the return journey is thoroughly enjoyable via theGR®®37, which runs alongside the pond and offers magnificent views in several places, with flocks of marsh birds.

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. This route should be undertaken in calm weather due to the risk of falling trees in the forest. The trail markings on the ground are clear, as the route is used by a variety of walkers. 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.

An easy hike that can be enjoyed with the whole family. Departure from Malestroit, a pretty little town with half-timbered houses. The first half of the route is flat, following the towpath along the Nantes-Brest stream. The second part takes you through the countryside: fields, woods, chapels, calvaries and picturesque hamlets, following theGR®347.

La Vraie-Croix comes from the Breton "Lan Groez" (cross of the moor). A lovely walk that allows you to discover the countryside around the very pretty village of La Vraie-Croix.

This hike near the town of Saint-Avé allows you to discover a landscape of moors and forests in the first part. In the second part, we follow rivers to discover the old mills. It is very varied, with lots of ups and downs.

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.

Au départ d’une chapelle, partez pour une boucle en pleine nature. Forêt paisible, ruisseau chantant et campagne sereine vous accompagnent tout au long de cette balade accessible et ressourçante. Une vraie parenthèse bucolique à savourer.

A short circular stage of the Tour du Golfe du Morbihan (TGM), around the Chapelle Saint-Laurent, the little village of Bindre and the Chenal de Saint-Léonard. This section of the Tour du Golfe du Morbihan, winding through hedgerows, sunken lanes and marshes, does not offer the most spectacular scenery, but it has the advantage of being close to Vannes and Séné, and accessible by public transport. Furthermore, several information boards add to the interest of the walk. From November to April, after the rains, parts of the path are muddy.

The old town of Vannes is full of reminders of its dense population in the Middle Ages, which you can discover on this short walk. In addition to numerous half-timbered houses, you can admire the old ramparts and the Tour du Connétable, Saint-Pierre Cathedral and the more recent Saint-Patern Church, beautiful gardens, and more. At the start and end of the walk, the Port of Vannes and its pleasure boats add a maritime touch to this urban route.

The landscape around Questembert is characterised by wooded, steep-sided valleys through which pretty streams flow. For a long time, these streams powered a multitude of mills, which you can discover along the route, between two breaks in the rich countryside criss-crossed by beautiful tree-lined paths. As for the popinettes, perhaps we passed them without knowing what they were!

A round-trip stage of the Tour du Golfe du Morbihan (TGM) in Vannes, from the banks of the Vincin to the Pointe des Émigrés. This walk takes in one of the most beautiful coastal stretches of Vannes, featuring the Conleau Peninsula, the Vincin River and the mouth of the Marle. It is particularly well-suited for birdwatching in various habitats (river, forest, coast, pond, etc.). There is a long list of species to spot or hear. Two observation points are located along the route. The trail is accessible all year round, even in wet weather.

Rochefort-en-Terre is built on a rocky outcrop partly surrounded by the Ruisseau de Saint-Gentien. It is hard to believe that this slender stream is the source of the gorge that opens up to the north of the town, yet it is indeed this stream that feeds the beautiful Étang du Moulin Neuf. The shores of this lake, along with the rocky ridges overlooking the Arz valley, provide a beautiful setting for this medieval gem. And strolling around, discovering the hidden corners of this famous place, offers a very different experience from that of the many visitors who are content to simply walk up and down the main street.

This hike is circular, taking forest paths and roads on the return journey, via the Circuit des Ardoisières, the Circuit des Pins, and passing through the village of Malansac.

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.

A circular loop in the Pont-Sal woods with a return trip to the Rochers du Cerf site in the commune of Plougoumelen. Forest, valley, river and countryside scenery. Includes a botanical trail. Suitable for all seasons.

This is a pleasant and varied walk which, from Pont-Sal, follows the left bank of the Sal estuary, passing in front of the Pont-Sal mill via a recent footpath (created in 2017). It continues along the Bono river to the Kervilio mill. The return journey takes you past the Becquerel Chapel and the village of Plougoumelen to Pont-Sal via a series of paths typical of the Breton bocage. You'll want to come back again.

A short round-trip walk from the Moulin de Kervilio in the commune of Le Bono to the Pointe de Kerisper in the commune of Pluneret. The route follows the River Bono to its confluence with the River Auray, passing through the port and across the old suspension bridge. Suitable for all seasons, but wear good walking shoes after rain!
