(6) Turn left and carry on straight on to Plescop, crossing over the D779.

Several impassable sections, forcing us to take several detours.
An easy walk, but too often through outlying neighbourhoods.

↔1.88 mi ↗+52 ft ↘-52 ft ◔0h 55 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Vannes (Morbihan)
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.

↔6.19 mi ↗+20 ft ↘-20 ft ◔2h 50 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Vannes (Morbihan)
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.

⚑Departure from Saint-Avé (Morbihan)
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.

Walking The banks of the Vannes

Les rives de Vannes
↔6.13 mi ↗+69 ft ↘-69 ft ◔2h 55 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Vannes (Morbihan)
This route alternates between seascapes along the Gulf of Morbihan, the protected natural site of the Vincin River – whose charm changes with the tide – and a maze of paths just a stone’s throw from the historic centre of Vannes. To finish off, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, you can continue along the path between the Marle and the Vincin rivers, which encircle the delightful Conleau Peninsula.

Walking The Marle tour

Visorando Member
Le tour de la Marle
↔9.76 mi ↗+72 ft ↘-69 ft ◔4h 35 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Vannes (Morbihan)
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.

Walking From Mangolérian to Camp de Meucon to bypass Vannes Airport

↔8.53 mi ↗+236 ft ↘-253 ft ◔4h 10 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Monterblanc (Morbihan)
This route, which involves little change in elevation, will take you around Vannes-Golfe du Morbihan Airport. It skirts the westernmost part of the Meucon camp, where all the buildings are located; this area is safe provided you stay on the described route. It returns via the south of the airport, passing not far from the César camp (viewpoint).
