Inland Brittany

Lesser known than its coastlines, Brittany's inland conceals unsuspected beauty. Mysterious, and rustling with legendes, the interior Brittany, named « Argoat », charms us with its extremely diversified landscapes, the metamorphisis of colours with the changing of seasons: golden yellow shades of cultivated fields, rich bronze tints of the woodlands, mauves of the  moorland's heather,  and all the different shades of green fern and moss. It is easy to see how the heart of Brittany makes that of an artist's beat faster.

 Paths across the fields bear witness to great history and heritage. There, a chapel seems to have been forgotten by mankind in the middle of nowhere. Further on, in the mists over a reed-bordered lake, appear the outlines of a medieval castle. It's a land of fresh water, a Bretagne hollowed out by many rivers. This Bretagne never turns its back on the sea for too long, which  powerful tides sometimes push up the salty taste of the sea far into the rias. 

 Even though lakes might not be the first thing to come to one's mind while thinking of Brittany, there are several lakes set in the heart of sumptuous sights, in between heath and clusters of tall trees. Rivers, canals, farmland criss-crossed by hedges and trees, favorable to biodiversity,  appeal more and more to nature lovers, delighted to travel throughout the length and breadth of the region along the well fit-out network of footpaths.
