Upper Pond of the Val Sans Retour

Highlight • Lake

Many people stop at the Miroir aux Fées only, yet this pond upstream is wilder and the atmosphere deserves to push the walk here.

Val Sans Retour

Highlight • Gorge

The famous Valley of No Return, here the atmosphere is obviously special with the legend that radiates around. A great opportunity in any case to discover the forest of Paimpont and the many places linked to the Arthurian cycle.

From here you can admire the Valley of No Return. But don't forget to spare a thought for the two young lovers petrified here by the fairy Morgane.

February 3, 2024,Circuit du Val Sans Retour (Tréhorenteuc)
This circuit is, in my opinion, very poorly marked. Also, if you don't save it, you will quickly get lost!
Some portions prove to be a little dangerous, particularly on rocks and along waterways.
The walk nevertheless offers nice views of the heights of the Brocéliande forest.

Top (even if the golden tree is a bit of a scam ... for tourists.)
Nevertheless, we soak up the magical atmosphere of the Brocéliande forest
