About Langonnet forest

The Langonnet forest is a former farmland of 29 hectares, located in Morhiban in Brittany. It is composed of multiple wooded plots of various trees species (sessile oak, cedar, Douglas fir, Scots pine, cherrywood, checker trees, red cedar…), a meadow, a wild orchard and a wetland. The Langonnet river also runs through the forest for a kilometre.
We have restored and enhanced the Bodero menhir, which stands on the edge of the woods. Home to great biodiversity, the forest is also home to beehives and a honey hedge.
