Frequently asked questions

For a successful autumn
  • Why take a walk in the forest?

    The forest is the perfect place for a wide range of activities. It’s the perfect time to bond with your children. Take the opportunity to go orienteering with them, for example. If you’re more of an athlete, you can plan a running session. Finally, don’t forget that your dogs love the forest and will be delighted to stretch their legs!
    Make your walk in the forest unique by stopping to pick chestnuts or mushrooms.
    Forest walks have many benefits. These include recharging your batteries, getting away from pollution and re-connecting with people – in short, taking a forest bath.

    In autumn, Brittany offers a changing climate, so pack warm, waterproof clothing, as well as layers to adapt to temperature variations. Waterproof hiking boots are ideal for coastal walks. Don’t forget a jacket or scarf for chilly evenings!
