Visited 16.09.23 The only alignments open to walk through on my visit were Menec and Kerlescan. Alignements de Kerlescan was the more impressive of the two with taller stones in the rows. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink

This is the third and last of the three main alignments (heading east) . Thirteen rows of 555 stones running for only 250 meters, the tallest of which is 13 feet tall, I say only when comparing it with the other two sets of stones. The smaller wooded alignments of Petite Menec are a further 3 to 4 hundred meters east. Fences kept me away from the stones and a tour guide party just emptied itself out onto the road side, they're all over the place, I'm off to see the dolmen. The wonderful dolmen of Kercado.

From the nearby monuments at Manio, we wandered back through the woods and along the roadside to admire the Kerlescan alignments. Astonishing stuff. You can't walk among these, but their power is still overwhelming. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink
