Morvan
Why the Morvan works so well for a walking holiday
Forests, hills, streams, lakes and small villages create a varied landscape. Mix shorter walks with full-day hikes and use Morvan Explorer to add viewpoints, sights, cafés and other useful stops along the way.
Planning your walking days
- Choose a route with a distance and duration that fits your day.
- Download the GPX file before setting off where available; mobile coverage can be limited in quieter parts of the Morvan.
- Check the weather and carry enough drinking water, even on shorter walks.
- Follow local signs and any temporary restrictions during the hunting season.
- If you walk with a dog, check each route and location and be considerate around wildlife and livestock.
