Paimpont

Paris, the country's capital, is located 220 miles (354 kilometers) east of Paimpont.

When you are visiting Paimpont, don't miss the chance to spend some time at the Foret de Paimpont.

Of course, limiting yourself to only one place, no matter how popular, usually only offers you a glimpse into the wider cultural and natural fabric of a region. So try to allow a few days to tour Brittany's other sights and attractions. Examples of places within a relatively short distance of Paimpont are Saint-Marcel, 19 miles (31 kilometers) to the northeast, and Cournon, 19 miles (31 kilometers) to the north.

About 25 miles (40 kilometers) to the east of Paimpont is Rennes, a regional center where you go see University of Rennes, Rennes Cathedral and Parc Expo Rennes Airport. Espace des Sciences, Musee de Bretagne and Foret de Paimpont are some more interesting sights here that should be included on every visitor's to-do list.

If the weather keeps you indoors, spend some time in Brittany's art galleries and art museums. Spend the time to delve deeper into Brittany by discovering its earlier chapters. A great way to start is by visiting the area's fine old fortresses.

If you enjoy the water, include some watersports in your itinerary. Kite surfing is a common pastime and another great activity is surfing.

When your time is up in Paimpont, use your last euros on last-minute souvenirs and say Au revoir / À bientôt (farewell).
