Trail Beffou Simon Pouyet 2The Beffou forest or “the home of the beeches” is a massif steeped in history! Originally a metallurgical site, this forest is criss-crossed by an ancient Roman road and hides one of the longest covered walkways in Brittany: the Brohet walkway. This 630-hectare massif is also the highest in Brittany.

Take a walk in the largest wooded area on the coast. A walk in the Lann Ar Waremm woodland (Landes à garennes in French) takes you through 3 different landscapes: moors, woods and meadows! These former farmlands are now home to 300 hectares of biodiversity.
A superb walk in the forest, the light was magnificent! My only regret is that I didn’t come across any Korrigans!
Everyone knows the castle that overlooks this valley, but take the time to discover this forest where nature, the wild river and vestiges of the past meet, and enjoy a few moments of calm in this haven of peace far from the hustle and bustle of the city.
