Sulniac walks

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.

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 is a lovely country walk starting from Berric. From the first hills overlooking (slightly) the Gulf of Morbihan and the Vilaine estuary at the bottom of the valleys that criss-cross this wooded landscape, the proposed route winds its way along delightful tree-lined paths enhanced by the colours of autumn. But they must be pleasant in all seasons!

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.

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 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.

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.

Cycling tour on the Rhuys Peninsula, via cycle paths and routes, with virtually no roads. Accessible to all, no technical difficulty. Pass through the woods and marshes to reach the ocean.

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.

A short circular section of the Tour du Golfe du Morbihan (TGM), through the hamlets of Les Quatre Vents, Cressignan and Michotte, starting from the Séné bird sanctuary. This section of the Gulf of Morbihan is not the most spectacular, but several information boards add to the interest of the walk. It is all the more interesting if you combine it with a visit to the bird sanctuary, part of which is open all year round and the other, the most beautiful part, only for part of the year and at certain times (see practical information).

As is often the case in Brittany, the Noyal-Muzillac area has a hollow relief, in which streams of varying sizes have carved out their beds. The proposed route plays leapfrog over the Tohon and the Pont Pily and Pont Noyal streams. In between, it climbs back up to the top of the relief to visit a few villages with beautiful architectural heritage.

Nestled at the head of the Rivière de Pénerf, the village of Ambon sits on the first rise above the marshes. This route allows you to explore the local area along a path that alternates between wooded countryside and marshes. Given the condition of the paths at the time of our visit (May), it seems best to tackle this circular route outside of wet periods.

Finally! After years of land negotiations, the elected representatives of Muzillac have succeeded in bringing to fruition a project that has been in the works for more than a decade: creating a footpath that goes all the way around the Étang de Pen Mur. This long stretch of water, held back by the Moulin de Pen Mur dam, occupies the bottom of the valley where the Ruisseau de Saint-Éloi stream used to flow. It is now possible to walk along the lake to the Chapelle du Moustéro chapel and return via the other bank. Although the eastern bank is less wooded than its counterpart, the entire route runs under the canopy of trees that line the banks of the lake. And the icing on the cake is that the improvements made, which are fairly minor and will soon be invisible, have preserved natural sections and stairways that prevent motorised vehicles and even mountain bikes from using the path. Walkers, grab your walking sticks!

Hézo is not just a white church on the banks of the Rivière de Noyalo. It is above all a territory that is half land, half sea, located deep in the Gulf of Morbihan. Between the pieces of land surrounded by water at high tide and the forests of oak and maritime pine, there is room for a beautiful walk with woody and salty scents. Please note: during high tides or very wet weather, some sections along the edge of the gulf may be difficult to access.

Dog-friendly circular walk to discover the start of Vannes river, at the end of the Gulf of Morbihan. Nice view on the marshes of Séné and some beautiful houses. Part of a birds sanctuary.

To the west of the Gulf of Morbihan, the sea surrounds the islands. In the east of the Petite Mer, it seems that the land surrounds a few inlets, as the land and sea appear to merge. This walk, which starts at Purgatoire (yes, that's the name of the place), will take you on a journey of discovery through this rather secret part of the Gulf, first along beautiful country lanes, then along the coastal path. To be enjoyed at different times of the tide.

A short family walk between former salt marshes, now a bird sanctuary, and the Gulf of Morbihan.

Opposite Tascon Island, the former salt marshes of Lasné and Saint-Armel are a biodiversity reserve for both fauna and flora, and offer an ideal setting for a walk along the dykes, facing the bay between Tascon Island and the Passage Peninsula, completed by a circular route around the latter.

A beautiful walk along the banks of the Vilaine and inland.

A pretty walk between the countryside and the seaside. The Pointe de Penn Lann stands guard over the Vilaine Estuary.

Walk along the edge of the marshes and oyster farms on the edge of the Rhuys peninsula. The route follows theGR® 34 on the "Tour du Parc" peninsula.
