The effort is very violent, and we find ourselves almost at a standstill on the steepest slopes (which are around 20%). The road is very poor and narrow. But it's worth the effort. At the top of the wall, there is a fine view over several dozen kilometres, with glimpses of the English Channel, the hills of central Brittany and the surrounding plateaux. There is also an old chapel (Saint Hervé). Menez Bré is one of the highest peaks in the area.... read more

L'effort est très violent, on se retrouve casiment à l'arrêt dans les pentes les plus fortes (qui avoisinent les 20%). La route est de très mauvaise qualité et étroite. Mais l'effort vaut le détour. En haut du mur, on a une belle vue sur plusieurs dizaines de kilomètres, on aperçoit la Manche, les collines du centre Bretagne et des plateaux environnants. Il y a aussi un Vieille chapelle (Saint Hervé). Le Menez Bré est un des plus haut sommet des environs.
