Nestled in the heart of the Auray countryside, Ploemel alone proves that in Brittany, there is not only the coast that is worth a visit. A charming commune in Morbihan between land and sea, Ploemel is ideally located to visit some of Brittany's most emblematic sites, such as the alignments of Carnac, Quiberon Bay and Groix Island. Ready to pack your bags?
Wedged between the Auray and Étel rivers, Ploemel has a rich history dating back to the Neolithic period. After being occupied by the Celts, the Venetians and the Romans, it was the Bretons who settled in this millenary land in the 7th century. From its past, Ploemel has kept an interesting and important architectural heritage, which will certainly win the hearts of lovers of old stones. As you walk through the narrow streets of this picturesque old town, you will have the opportunity to cross the road to the Chapel of Locmaria: built during the 14th century on the site of Locmaria, this chapel known for its engraved funeral slab is the oldest religious building in the municipality. A true sanctuary dedicated to sailors, the Chapelle de la Recouvrance not far from here also deserves a visit thanks to its superb 16th and 17th century wall paintings. The chapel of Saint-Cado, that of Saint-Méen, that of Saint-Laurent, the parish church of Saint-André and the many crosses in the village complete the picture of religious monuments to see during your visit to Ploemel.
Brittany would not be Brittany without its famous megaliths. Also, the Mané-Bogad gallery dolmen testifies to the very ancient occupation of Ploemel by man: built on a promontory, this dolmen takes place in the heart of a superb park, a favourite playground for children. Perfect for family walks around its lake and picnics in the shade of its trees, Mané-Bogad Park is one of the most popular destinations for your family stay. Take advantage of your visit to Ploemel to go to Carnac, located only 7 kilometres away: with almost as many inhabitants as dolmens and menhirs, Carnac, impressive and captivating, is one of the most proud of the Breton heritage. Carnac is one of the most important megalithic sanctuaries in the world and is an absolutely unmissable historical highlight for anyone spending their holidays in this beautiful part of Morbihan. If you are a hiker or cyclist, you can reach these famous alignments from Ploemel, via specially designed trails. Ploemel is home to many signposted routes, from its country trails to the coastal paths that border its neighbouring towns. The "Circuit des Chapelles et des Fontaines" and the "Mané-Bogad" are two essential routes in Ploemel, which will allow you to discover the smallest secrets of the town over 10 and 6 kilometres.
Just a few minutes from the Atlantic Ocean and its wonderful fine sandy beaches, Ploemel offers you the opportunity to relax along some of the most beautiful stretches of the Breton coast. We recommend that you take a walk along the sublime "Kerbihan Beach" in La Trinité-sur-Mer: far from the hustle and bustle of the central beaches of the seaside resort, this wild beach is the perfect place for moments of calm and relaxation, in a preserved and magnificent setting. The "Grande Plage" of Carnac is certainly the most popular in the area, with some 2 kilometres of fine sand. Loved by families, it is just as much for sports enthusiasts who can enjoy a wide range of activities, from volleyball to water sports such as sailing, scuba diving, kitesurfing, bodyboarding, catamarans, wakeboarding, jet skiing, paddling, kayaking, or even going on a sea excursion aboard a small motor boat in the sublime Bay of Quiberon. The "Kerhilli Beach" in Erdeven is also a water sports paradise as many sailboat, surf and kitesurf enthusiasts gather there every year for water sports competitions. If you spend a day on the island of Groix, you will have to discover the magnificent beaches of "Tahiti Beach" and "Les Grands Sables", renowned both for their paradisiacal waters and for the many water sports they offer. The Wild Coast of Quiberon Bay has, in addition to its legendary invigorating air, many coves and beaches to discover during your walks. Totally accessible by bike, the Ploemel coast will offer its curious visitors the chance to glimpse sumptuous panoramas, especially along the cycle path linking Ploemel to Erdeven, up to the Quiberon peninsula and the Ria d'Étel.
