サン＝マルス＝デ＝グレンヌのおすすめランニングルート

It's worth it. A steep climb that will take your breath away. Get your guns on.

If you are looking for a place that combines nature, history and legend, you can visit the mound of Sainte Anne and the legend of the Dragon, a site perched near Domfront-en-Poiraie in Normandy. According to legend, around the year 1052, a fierce dragon lived in a pit called The Dragon Pit and terrorized the region. The lord of Domfront, William II Talvas, had to sacrifice a young victim every day to appease the beast. One day, his daughter Mabile was chosen by fate and was about to be devoured by the dragon. But a mysterious old man appeared on a rock overlooking the pit and made the sign of the cross, ordering the monster to disappear forever. The dragon flew away and fell into another pit called La Fosse-Tertière, where it died. You can discover this fascinating history by following a loop trail that connects Tertre Sainte-Anne and Tertre Chapon, where you will find information panels. You can also enjoy panoramic views of the countryside and the medieval town of Domfront from the top of the hill.

A wooded natural site with a stone quarry. Many activities are possible around this site but the best way to discover it is, by far, to explore it on foot. Viewpoints and picnic areas will allow you to enjoy this highlight.

On a half-wooded, half-open part, this small path offers delightful plays of light. Before arriving on the greenway linking Flers to Domfront, a pretty bridge allows you to cross the Varenne.

This church, which owes its name to the proximity of a Varenne ford, was built at the end of the 11th century. Remodeled several times since, it remains a remarkable building that is worth the detour.
