Step back in time with me to uncover the mysteries of Carnac’s ancient stones. This tour will take you through some of the world’s oldest megalithic sites, where rows of massive standing stones—known as menhirs—stretch as far as the eye can see. I’ll share local legends, archaeological theories, and a few hidden tales that only locals know. We’ll walk along ancient paths trodden by Druids, exploring how these stones are believed to align with celestial movements and hold ceremonial significance. You’ll experience the quiet power of these prehistoric monuments and learn about the enduring mysteries that still captivate archaeologists today. By the end, you won’t just see the stones; you’ll feel their history.
We’ll start with the Le Ménec alignment, one of the largest stone sites in Europe. You’ll hear about the ancient people who set up these stones, along with local legends of how they were moved.
A walk over to Kermario, where I’ll share more about the archaeological theories regarding the purpose of these rows. Enjoy the view and quiet atmosphere of this timeless site.
End the tour at a nearby artisan workshop, where you can browse Carnac-inspired crafts, from jewelry to carvings that reflect the town’s mystical history.
