Garden and banks of the Moros from Cadol Chapel

Park near the Saint-Grégoire Chapel in Cadol, in the Melgven district.

(S/E) With your back to the chapel, take the small road eastwards until you reach the D70.

(1) Cross this departmental road carefully using the pedestrian crossing on the right, and continue along the small road opposite called Chemin de Stang Karstic Cave. Ignore the road leading to the Bellevue farm and continue downhill towards the GRP® des Portes de Cornouaille. At the right-angle bend in the road, turn left and you will arrive at the Moros ford.

(2) Cross the stream at the ford or via the concrete bridge, depending on the water level, and follow the path up to the road coming from Coat Karstic Cave.

(3) During the Covid pandemic, a local resident began creating a pleasure garden here, and her project has continued to develop: take the time to stroll around this magnificent space. Retrace your steps back to Moros.

(2) Turn right onto a path that follows the stream upstream: a sign indicates "Trail des ragondins" (Nutria Trail). The beginning of the trail features improvements following on from the garden near Coat Aven: decorative panels, a picnic table made from reclaimed wood, etc. Cross a small makeshift bridge called "Pont des sourires" (Bridge of Smiles), continue up the stream and, turning left, you will arrive at the fence of the pumping station. Follow it on the left to reach the entrance to the enclosure surrounding the water catchment area.

(4) Take the Route de Gorem Dour Bras, turn left then right, and continue up to the D70.

(5) Cross the departmental road carefully at the pedestrian crossing on the right and head opposite towards Keralain, Kergleuziou (signpost). Pass the houses and you will come to a fork: you will see a wind turbine on your right.

(6) Facing the "Kergleuziou" sign, turn left onto a wide path that gradually descends towards a lake, which you should go around on the left, and you will reach a fork.

(7) Turn right, go up a beautiful sunken lane and arrive at a grassy area just before the chapel. Turn right to reach the car park near the chapel (S/E).

The path between points (2) and (4) has been recently restored and does not appear on the map.

Note that the start of the route to point (2) is on a small country road: this is the least pleasant part but is unavoidable in order to complete the loop.
