Description

Welcome to the Melrand rest area, set up on the site of the former campsite on the edge of the Kerstraquel pond and a stone's throw from the river, in the heart of Morbihan (about 40 km northeast of Lorient). The pitches are spacious and well equipped, with electrical hookup, parking and water supply; public toilets are nearby and several picnic tables invite you to relax outdoors. For emptying, a dedicated area is located about 750 m behind the Melrand multipurpose hall. The village offers local shops (bakery, convenience store) and a regular local producers' market on the church square. Situated in the Blavet valley and labelled Pays d'Art et d'Histoire du Pays des Rohan, the commune is ideal for hiking, cycling and canoe trips.

Tourisme

Melrand (Morbihan, France)

Melrand is a rural commune in central Brittany, located in the Morbihan department. A bocage village, it offers a peaceful atmosphere amid fields, hedgerows and narrow country lanes. The commune features a fabric of stone buildings and a few religious structures that mark the local landscape. It is a convenient starting point for those wishing to discover the rural heart of the department, away from the coastal tourist routes.

Heritage and history

The town preserves traces of an ancient agricultural past, visible in the stone houses and farms scattered around the centre. There is generally a parish church and small ecclesiastical enclosures, characteristic elements of Breton religious heritage. Several calvaries and memorial monuments punctuate the paths, testifying to local community life over the centuries.

Nature and landscapes

The territory of Melrand is typical of the Breton bocage: fields compartmentalised by hawthorn hedges, meadows and groves. These landscapes offer changing views through the seasons and support diversified agriculture. Hikers appreciate the quiet of the paths and the connection with the surrounding countryside.

Outdoor activities

The commune offers walking and cycling routes on little-used roads, suitable for family outings. The proximity of other rural communes makes it possible to chain themed circuits (heritage, nature). Wildlife observation and landscape photography are activities accessible directly from the village.

Gastronomy and local products

Local cuisine highlights Breton terroir products: dairy, rillettes, galettes and cider often appear on the menus of small inns and guest tables in the area. Nearby markets allow visitors to discover locally produced cheeses and vegetables.
