Lovely and peaceful place to visit. You can easily spend a whole day wondering around and getting lost in the beauty and enchantment of it all. Definitely worth visiting.

Stunning walk here on a clear day. It is definitely worth doing the loop up over the ridge. Well stopped of here as we were driving south and it turned out to be a good choice.

Didn't actually go this year, there had been a fire there. I have been before and enjoyed the walk to the Golden Tree. I don't know if it was affected by the fire.

A nice short walk on the 2km loop but we could go no further due to the fire that some muppet had started the night before. We met someone who was there when it started, apparently by some dilbert trying to summon a dragon... I mean really.... 🙄

A beautiful place veiled in the legends of the Sangraal. Very nice and picturesque.

Beautiful place to walk (forest trails not open all year round).

Breathtaking views and walks. Many places are touristic so busy car parks.

Great and lovely presentation. I won't forget what I got in my hand. Thank you for my lovely friend Stéphanie to show me there. .. Channi from Thailand 😍😊

Better than expected, was really interesting and immersive experience, the English translation was really good. Whole family loved it. Didn't get a ticket by email when I booked online but I had the payment confirmation I used at the desk.

A very immersive experience that teaches you the interesting lore and legends of the area. Translation audio devices are available, don't forget to ask for yours before you go in. High quality experience that I would come back to again.

Excellent animation about the forest and the myth of Brocéliande. The way the spectator goes through is very well organised and it is suitable for both adults and children. The surroundings are magnificent and the staff is welcoming. Also, it is accessible for people with disability or difficulty to stand/walk !

A mythical spot that contains numerous shops to perk your interest and tempt the magical or skeptical side. Some shops are commercial while others are original containing natural items or unique trinkets. At the end of the road is the tourist spot for a tour and legend of the forest. This tour is recommended and gives you great information on the history of the forest before you set out and explore it on your own Like if you agree ✍️

Really more for children than adults but very well executed with a great deal of imagination.

The strength of the forest is noticeable! The city holds the magic and nurture medieval tales!

We ended up turning around at the entrance because for a family of 6 (including a child going free) it would have been nearly €50 which we didn't think was worth paying. The locals told us it was a bit overrated so we didn't take a chance. But great parking and beautiful area!

Museum with alot of lore and an steampunk event with a lightshow at the lake, magical.

We are visiting the area with our 8yo and 4yo. This castle has been partially turned into an exhibit of the Arthurian legends and related artworks by what I'm guessing are local artists. The presentation we had by one of the animators was EXCELLENT - she was very sweet, animated, and the story was very interesting (all in French). While I'd not take a trip out of the way to see it, it's cute for a couple hours if you're in the area.

Don't visit this centre, unless you're interested in a kitschy art collection, manikins and a lot of textboards, mainly in French. If you know the stories of the Round Table already you don't want to read them. If you don't know them yet, you probably won't have the time or the energy to read them all. In the bookshop many nice, but only French books. The castle itself is nice, but mostly ruined. The woods around the castle are nice, but rather small. I woudn't pay a ticket for all this if I had known this in advance. Save your money and walk somewhere else. The stories of the Round Table unfortunately do not come to live in the exposition in this centre.

Couldn't get pass the entrance gate as the dogs are not alowed even in the park, despite the fact the sign said otherwise and had to wait 10minute to be served. Also the owner has a dog, so can't see the reasoning behind it! No wonder garmin doesn't have it as a historical monument as it looks naff. The first ever chateau where the dogs are not allowed even in the park!

The château overlooks a beautiful lake. The legend of King Arthur is retold with pictures, films, audios inside the château. The entry fee is 7€.

Very nice center giving you all the information you ever wanted about the arthurian legends. Bookshop is very complete. Happy we started our visit in the area here.

If you go in with the expectations of knowing what this is you will be fine. Is a cool place to say that you've been and the Fountain of Youth is nearby. The nature trails are worthwhile as well. If you are driving by definitely make a stop. I would not go hours out of your way for this unless you are a huge King Arthur fan.

First off, this is not a French Stonehenge but it is a well worthwhile stop while traveling through the area. Parking is free and caters for a good number of vehicles. There is a forest walk that takes you to the visitors centre experience which is paid for but you can just do the walk and use the toilets. The stones are set in a wooded glade, some horizontal but many standing. There were a few people milling around but you can generally find an angle without showing them for pictures.

The site was easy to find with lots of signs. The site and trails were clean and well-kept. Many signs on the trails tell you the story of the site. I would recommend going to La Porte des Secrets before and rake a tour with a history-teller in the forest to add magic to your experience.

If you're into medieval lore you'll enjoy visiting this site.

Must have been beautiful in the past but was quite disappointing as others have pointed out.

A mystic site where King Arthur’s magician, Merlin is said to be buried. Close by is the Fountain of Youth It is a few minutes walk from the car park

A nice 4km circular walk which covers a calm lake area where we had a lovely picnic, stream, and a mix of fields and woodland. Perfect length walk for a young family. Merlin tomb, fountain of youth a bit of fun for us. 3 stars as the footpath markers were not always there we took a few wrong turns.

Very old oak, changed a little since 2019, you can't get near it anymore. Viewable from behind the fence. Still a nice place to visit.

A definite tourist spot to see. This tree has interesting history with it in regards to the Merlin legend of the forest. It is in a nice open country side, so the drive is also pleasant. While you can’t go inside the hole of the tree, it is an amazing site to stand before! I recommend this spot :)

The beautiful ancient oak tree is preserved carefully. It is 500 years old, and according to legends, even 1,000 years old. Imagine the historical events it saw during its life. It is enormous: The circumference is 10 metres. Amazing.

We saw this place on the tourist map in French and did not realize it was a tree until we arrived. LOL It is more than 500 years old. Very nubby and gnarly. Once you find the parking it is a very short walk. The history of the tree is available on a sign in French and English.

It's a tree. That's it. But , if you are inclined to think about the stupid and selfish humans exploding their population from 2 billion in 1923 to 8 billion in 2023 and thereby making extinct insects, mammals and plants - and then themselves; this thousand yr old tree is a good place to think.

I think the word magical best describes this place. Unfortunately, you can't (or shouldn't) get close to the tree for there's a barrier in several feet distance, but all this is understandable considering it's age and overall condition.

A wonderful witness of the past... 1000 years old oak!

Don't stop for the tree, go visit the top of the hill, that's where the real beauty resides

Not worth it if you are visiting just the tree and it is raining 🙂‍↕️… but so lovely to do a long sprinting there

someone painted a tree stump gold..the beauty of the forest supersedes it.

Great place for hiking!

Great walk, some steep hills and had to cross the river a few times, beautiful sites

This really is brightly golden. Interesting. We really loved this part of the forest and esp the lake and the short hike up the hill behind it (rocky, steep, take care if you try it!)

cute setting gorgeous lake

Beautiful staff, delicious food. However, endless waiting time. We spent 3 hours sitting there and 2 of the 3 were just waiting for our order, or to place another order for desert. It was understandable while the place was full, but when we went to leave, the place was almost empty and somehow the 15+ persons working there were still in a massive chaos. After waiting another 20 minutes in line just to pay the bill we were pretty fed up with the place. Maybe just a bad day? Still loved the food and the drinks. Ah, and before i forget, nothing was in english.

The terrace, which is situated on a lakeside, is fashioned in a way which lets you take advantage of its ambiance no matter the weather, be it sunny, chilly or rainy outside. As such, there's a heated tent, where you could fit about 50 people. Outside the tent there are also quite a few places to sit. Even though you couldn't call the place elegant per see, its fresh food, cooked under the longing gaze of clients, its exquisite, rich, excellently executed menu, which is artistically arranged in plates/glasses and the young and well trained personnel give this place a particularly special feel. My thanks to the chef, my congratulations to the personnel and bon appetite to the lucky people which will choose D'Abbaye terrace  to entice their senses.

Chips absolutely disgusting: felt treated like foreign tourists that don't come again. No bill from ' madame' in the bar at the end.

Nice little and comfortable place. Good food, Good drinks, and Good service

local beer excelent and not expensive, amazing icecream menu, good local grilled meat and charcuterie from their own butcher's shop; gets very busy at holiday times, need to eat early or book

Eat here every time we visit Brittany.- Never disappointed. Service is excellent. Well organised , methodical, clean and friendly. Might have to wait a bit in high season, but that is acceptable. Worth waiting for. The food is delicious and amazing desserts.

Very good food, served in quite large portions. We were served quote fast even though the restaurant was close to full. I would definitely recommend, ^^

Amazing, full of magic, lovely walk Walk can be difficult for people with disabilities as you have to climb some rocks View is amazing

Nice walk in the forest with a good view on the highest point of the track. The walking trail is 4km long and easy for anyone to complete (our niece did it in flip flops but I'd still recommend sneakers, you'll be walking in a forest). The orientation signs are a bit confusing or missing at some points in the end so you need ti follow your instinct (recharge your batteries,just in case). It's a nice place to have a walk, maybe grab a cup of coffee in the village before moving on. We took 2 hours for the walk and another hour for coffee.

Lovely walk and interesting panels and views

Really lovely walk!! But we did get lost!! Bit of advice try and follow the signs if you can see them? We didn't ended up having a 4 hr walk instead of 2hr but not a problem as it's a really nice walk! But it was starting to get dark! Oh Eck!!!!!!

Really interesting area the valley is good not for the faint hearted plenty of walks in the area a good day out

Beautiful and calming

very nice place in the wood. with or without a guided tour, go there to try to find some clue of Merlin and Arthur

If you don't mind the slight trek up, you'll find the fountain is surrounded by the beautiful nature of Brocéliande

Very muddy as we had had lots rain. About 1.5 km walk in each direction on sometimes difficult paths. Lovely forest and some panels explaining the legends

Bring your hiking boots it's quite a trek from the carpark. 15 minutes walk if you take the right at the fork in the path.

Nice hike, path could in some places be more clearly signed. Entrance from parking lot, NOT from the visible sign at the entrance to the parking lot!

The legend surrounding it was interesting, but when we got there it was hard to actually spot due to all of the people sitting around it and it is quite small. They didn't move the 20 minutes we were there (feeding the baby). It seemed as though they wanted everyone to leave so they would have it to themselves. But it is peak season, so there was a steady stream of people. Makes it more important to share the space, so we can all enjoy it! It was a shame it was a bit underwhelming considering the story behind it.

This is a mysterious source (not so much a fountain) in the forest of Broceliande. Unfortunately somewhat spoiled by the great number of tourists present. We did see a few bubbles, although not as much as we were expecting following the descriptions.

Another fantastic historical site in the woods! Lovely to see

We walked all the way to the tomb and what a load of nonsense!!! It was a lump of rock not even made to look like a tomb, very disappointing,don't waste time and energy going

What a great place

(Translated by Google) Magnificent 10km walk. If you were ever afraid that the forest would lose its interest after the fire of 2022, that is not the case. The place remains magical and the trees, some charred, others having held up, give the place a frightening and magnificent appearance. Concerning the giant's tomb as such... it is sublime, we would just like visitors to respect the place (mound of stones, feathers and branches in the tomb as well as toilet paper and the human excrement that goes with it. Shameful! I think I made sure that it doesn't show in the photo, not having thought about my future opinion) It's not the fault of the place, but still very unpleasant. (Original) Magnifique balade de 10km. Si jamais vous aviez peur que la forêt n'ai perdu de son intérêt après l'incendie de 2022, il n'en est rien. Le lieu reste magique et les arbres, certains calcinés, d'autres ayant tenu bon, donnent au lieu un aspect effrayant et magnifique. Concernant le tombeau du géant en tant que tel... il est sublime, on aimerait juste que les visiteurs respectent le lieu (monticule de pierres, plumes et branches dans le tombeau ainsi que du papier toilette et les déjections humaines allant avec. Honteux ! Je crois avoir fait en Sorte que ça ne se voit pas sur la photo, n'ayant pas pensé à mon futur avis) Ce n'est pas la faute du lieu, mais reste fort désagréable.

(Translated by Google) A somewhat mysterious site, which, with a little imagination, hints at a very distant funerary past steeped in legends and rites. Slightly lost in the middle of nowhere, accessible by a very easy forest path (the site is located alongside a logging operation), the stones and their arrangement leave little doubt that this is an ancient burial site. We are not looking at two or three stone blocks, the last remaining traces of a much larger megalithic site. Everything seems to still be there (or very close to) an ancient sarcophagus. The site is well worth a visit, including the short walk that leads to it. (Original) Site un peu mystérieux, qui avec un peu d'imagination laisse entrevoir un très lointain passé funéraire chargé de légendes et de rites. Un peu perdu au milieu de nul part, accessible par un chemin forestier très facile (le site est le long d'une exploitation forestière), les pierres et leur agencement ne laisse que peu de doute sur la présence ici d'une ancienne sépulture. Nous ne sommes pas devant 2 ou 3 blocs de pierres ultimes traces d'un site mégalithe bien plus important. Tout semble être encore là (ou très proche) d'un ancien sarcophage. Le site mérite d'être visité, y compris pour la petite balades qui y mène.

(Translated by Google) Nice walk to do with the family. Quite a natural spot. I recommend it... and a very beautiful view of the valley. (Original) jolie balade à faire en famille. coin assez naturel. je recommande... et très belle vue sur la vallée

(Translated by Google) An easy walk from the parking lot, even with young children. A very informative site, as it repurposes a complex from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age. And if history bores you, that's okay; sit under the trees near these stones and let your imagination wander! (Original) Petite ballade facile, même avec de jeunes enfants depuis le parking. Site très instructif car réutilisation d'un ensemble du Néolithique à l'âge du bronze. Et si l'histoire vous ennuie, c'est pas grave, asseyez-vous sous les arbres proche de ces pierres et laissez votre imagination vagabonder !

(Translated by Google) Impressive megalithic site, allow 1km of walking before reaching the site. Relatively little frequented (Original) Impressionnant site mégalithe, prévoir 1km de marche avant d’accéder au site. Assez peu fréquenté

Very popular with those of the magical persuasion. King Arthur's forest nearby. Nice lake with 4km walk around the edge. Bike hire in the village. Restaurant with 2 barbeques provides smoky environment.

Very old and spooky place. Creeps me out.

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful abbey from the outside. (We didn't go inside because the room with the door open didn't seem to be public, so we didn't bother looking any further.) You can walk around it by passing near the lake; it's really very pretty. Located next to the Paimpont Tourist Office. There's a parking lot right next door. (Original) Très belle abbaye de l'extérieur (Nous ne sommes pas rentrés car la salle porte que nous ayons vu ouverte ne semblait pas être publique, après nous n'avons pas cherché plus que ça) On peut en faire le tour en passant près du lac, c'est vraiment très joli. Situé à côté de l'Office de tourisme de Paimpont Il y a un parking juste à côté

(Translated by Google) A historical gem: from the 13th century with the nave in the shape of an upturned wooden boat hull, a beautiful polychrome sculpture and an altar where several styles from Gothic to Baroque are superimposed (not forgetting the treasure if it is accessible). During the week if the church is closed, go to the town hall... (Original) Une pépite historique : du XIIIe siècle avec la nef en forme de coque de bâteau renversé en bois, une sculpture polychrome de toute beauté et un autel où se superposent plusieurs styles du gothique au baroque ( sans oublier le trésor si celui-ci est accessible). En semaine si l'église est fermée passez par la mairie...

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, you can take a walk around the lake in a beautiful forest with views of the abbey at times (Original) Bel posto si può fare un giretto intorno al lago in bellissimo bosco con a tratti vista sull’abazia

(Translated by Google) A magnificent building, as only Christians can create! And it's free! The priest on site gave us a warm welcome and told us about the history of the place. (Original) Bâtiment magnifique comme seul les chrétiens sont capables de faire! En plus c’est gratuit ! Le père sur place nous a très bien accueilli et renseigné sur l’histoire du lieu

(Translated by Google) I recommend the guided tour which will provide you with many explanations about this abbey. (Original) Je vous conseille la visite guidée qui vous fournira de nombreuses explications sur cette abbaye

Sat and had a nice cup of coffee outside. Didn't try any food so can't comment on that this time.

Super bar !

Best Café in the neighborhood.

A really good time!

Super
