Dolmen de Kerlud

Highlight • Historical Site

This dolmen would have been covered with a huge tumulus as can be seen on the site of the nearby megaliths. It also had an engraving, as on other nearby sites, but it has disappeared.

First you should go to the visitor center, there is a film about the history (also in German). Then start the tour, very impressive.

Trail Reviews

Andreas Scheurer
September 5, 2025, Locmariaquer (et ses mégalithes par la côte)_250905

For our last walk before departure, we went to Locmariaquer. There, we circumnavigated the western "border" of the Gulf of Morbihan to the Atlantic. Since we were running out of time, we shortened the planned tour somewhat and skipped the Grand Menhir Brisé, as hunger drove us to Le Vahine Crêperie. There, as requested by @Andreas, I enjoyed the oysters 🦪 as an aperitif 😉. Two galettes (complete chorizo and Bigoudène, l'Andouille de Guémené, oat 🥚, confit onions 🧅, Emmental râpé) and a crêpe (crispy fries, caramel with salted butter and flambée with calva) rounded off the walk, the evening, and our vacation in Brittany! We hadn't been to the crêperie before, but we can highly recommend it based on the lovely evening.

Nice tour, but pretty hot today. The second half just goes along the road on the beach. But the first half, fantastic!

Not on the photos, as it was eaten too quickly: Kouign Amann from the Boulangerie/Pâtisserie "L' Atelier du pain"

A hike into the past, to the megaliths at Locmariaquer. Beautiful round on the Gulf of Morbihan.
