aolson visited on 16th Jul 2020 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 3 A beautiful walk through the pine forest, and then a bit of a scramble down to the beach. The causeway to the island is only open at low tide, which is also when the site is most visible.

Remains of a cromlech at the edge of the sea on Ile Berder to the south of Larmor-Baden in the Gulf of Morbihan.

It is possible to walk out to the island at low tide, but please be aware of the tidal situation.
