Huelgoat

Visit the legendary Huelgoat Forest with its incredible spill of rocks which erupted from more than 12 miles below the surface...

Located in the Armorica Regional National Park, Huelgoat Forest (Breton for “high woods”) is the birthplace of a number of Celtic legends. It features picturesque masses of rounded boulders. You might recognize the shapes that many are named for (a cauldron, an umbrella, a bed, and so on). Some of them are quite well-known. Will you be able to sway Trembling Rock, precariously balanced at more than 100 tons? Or perhaps you’ll stumble across the famous treasure that Merlin the Wizard entrusted to the woodland spirits? ©Istock by Gettyimages
