Hiking

Hiking around the Étang de l'Abbaye de Paimpont allows you to discover the tranquility of this serene lake in the heart of the Paimpont forest. As you walk, you will enjoy the lush greenery and century-old trees that surround you, creating a peaceful atmosphere. The highlight of your hike is the abbey located near the shore, which adds a historical touch to the beauty of nature. Enjoy the calm of the lake and keep your eyes open for local wildlife as you explore the area, while soaking up the legend of the Brocéliande forest that surrounds you.

Nice piece of water. The tour is well equipped for hiking but only authorized in spring and summer. (From April 1st)
