Carnac Alignments

Highlight • Other

The alignments of Carnac date from the Neolithic and were erected several millennia before the arrival of the Celtic peoples in the region. Many hypotheses have been put forward about them. No sure answer has been found. The most likely explanation would be the construction of paths that would lead to tumuli, and therefore these lines of rocks erected and drawn in a straight line would probably have a spiritual and funeral function.

It is a strip of land, about twenty meters wide, which connects the Quiberon peninsula to the continent.

September 15, 2023,Hinkelsteine ohne Ende: die Menhire von Carnac

At its narrowest point, it's just 80 meters wide, with the railway, road, and cycle path right through it. At Point du Perche, we visited a fantastic beach with waves over 2 meters …

This tour connects with the Belle Île. tours.. A ferry sails tegularly from Suiberon to Belle Île and takes bikes !
First we move to the other side of the peninsula. Along the "wild coast" with the impressive rock formations and roaring waves - no one swims here - the route continues on first-class paths to Carnac.

In the lively town with many small shops and restaurants, we fortify ourselves with crepes and a café and, after a loop over Carnac …
