Pinàbre Camping and Caravan Site

Loudéac forest, 11 kilometres away, is made up of 2,500 hectares of protected woodland stuffed with spots for outdoor activities such as fishing, cycling and horse riding and around 50 kilometres of marked walking trails: these should provide plenty more places for picnics… You must also make a stop in Moncontour, the spectacularly scenic hilltop medieval town surrounded by its 13th and 14th-century ramparts. Wander along its teeny side streets among the half-timbered houses and registered Historic Monuments including the Church of St. Maturinus and its 16th-century stained glass windows; after all that, find one of the town's famed seafood restaurants to gorge on oysters or crayfish. Going coastwards, it's 40 minutes' drive from the site to Brittany sea and sands at Saint Brieuc – and more seafood; the town's well known for its plump and juicy scallops. You can access the GR 34 or custom path from Saint Brieuc too: hiking at least a bit of its 1,800-kilometre route around Brittany's coast is something of a must if you're anywhere around the region.
