We came from our camping in Bretogne just to come here to hike. We expected it to be a pretty walk, but it exceeded our expectations. It has a pretty river walk that also has some 'rough terrain' parts, where our dog was a bit scared. We can also imagine that a older person, a diabetic or someone with heart problems might have some difficulties walking this part, so hike responsibly. I do recommend hiking shoes just to prevent yourself from straining your ankles or falling, since this walk was a bit more difficult than expected. After like an hour we went through a pretty forestry part of the mountain where we felt that the scenery and atmosphere changed. It is quite a hike, so I recommend taking some snacks and plenty of water with you.
Our dog also had his share of fun during the hike, there was during the walk loads of streaming clear river water for him to drink, but when we went upwards, there was less and less water. So if you're taking your four legged friend with you, I recommend filling a bottle of water for him when you're nearing the point of going upwards. There are also some resting points where you can have a small break. I do recommend to take some energy bars with you for the dog too. Our dog was very hungry afterwards and ate some of our oat bars. P.s. we couldn't find trash bins, so if your dog takes a number two and you're picking it up, you're going to be walking with the bag for quite a while.
This walk is absolutely...
Read moreBeautiful nature, challenging hikes across a multitude of tracks, an exquisite and unique area. Be sure to wear hiking boots of good quality though, terrain can be rocky, muddy, wet and/or slippery. Advice to parents: don't try this with small kids and/or buggies. General advice: be sure your cell phone has a full battery and you have a cell phone battery charger with you if you do a full day hike here, just in case you need to call emergency services. And carry a bottle of water a person and a foldable parka with you.
Parking space: that is an area that could do with some huge improvements. Due to the tea room at the entry point there is only parking space for some sixty cars. At leat double that parking space should be taken in to consideration by local government. If but for safety...
Read moreBeautiful place with many choices of trails. Can choose different trails according to which view you like and how you feel: walk along River (some parts can be narrow, wet or uneven with rocks), walk along road (flat and easy, can still see river as it is also along river but a bit higher) or walk up to hill (some part is steep or muddy, but view from top is worthwhile!).
When we were there at mid December, some trails near river are closed for letting nature grow back, so we combined different trails and enjoyed different views. Love the variety of colours, white waterfall, brown/black rocks, light green grass, ever green trees and dropped red leaves make it colourful even in winter. A very...
