View of Lac au Duc

Highlight • Lake

It is one of the largest lakes in Brittany with a length of 5.5 kilometers and a width of between 500 and 900 meters depending on the location. Lake Ploërmel constitutes a habitat of choice for many aquatic and terrestrial species. Otters, frogs, deer, white fish and insects benefit from this space fed by the Yvel.

Botany lovers will appreciate the Hydrangea circuit which runs for three kilometers, while running enthusiasts and cyclists take the path which goes around the lake. On the west bank, the water sports center offers a range of sailing or rowing sports, just a stone's throw from the beach.

Lock-keeper's house

Here you will find a lodge, a bicycle repair area and as a bonus a tap to fill your water bottles (at the back of the building).

Josselin Castle

Highlight • Religious Site

The castle's imposing towers are reflected in the River Oust. Owned by the Rohan family, one of the oldest families in Brittany, it is the symbol of this pretty town. Plan half a day to stroll through the charming streets of this "petite cité de caractère" (small, particularly picturesque town) and also visit the basilica.

Erected at the beginning of the 11th century, the Château de Josselin was once just a simple wooden building. Rebuilt and extended over the centuries, it was modernized by the Rohan family who still live there today.

The castle can be visited and also houses a museum of dolls and toys.
