Some hikes from the house… or almost (all in French …. sorry)
Loop of the Old Chapel (10 km; 3 hours). The point of the old chapel in Saint-Hélène is also home to the Cercle Nautique de la Ria d’Etel, ideal for kayaking or Stand Up Paddle on the ria.
On the tracks of Cadoudal (2km; 40 minutes). On the way back, take the opportunity to discover the peninsula of Locoal and have a break at “O’Perchoir” for a tea or a snack (7 rue Georges Cadoudal, 56550 Locoal-Mendon)
Circuit of Sainte Barbe (4,5 km; 1h20). And if you didn’t know, Sainte Barbe is THE surf spot in this part of Morbihan.
The megaliths path (8 km; 2h20). And we will finally reveal the secrets of the alignments. What we know now with certainty is that nobody has ever been able to agree on the origin and explanation of the alignments. Surprising, isn’t it?
The path of the villages of Erdeven (12 km; 3h30). Did you know that Erdeven offers 8 km of uninterrupted beaches? And then the beach Kerhilio in Erdeven is also very proud of its label Handiplage obtained in 2019, providing autonomous chairs of assisted launching, type seahorse or tiralo at the entrance to the beach.
