The route is composed of a quiet road, with a gravel cycle track alongside, for those who don't want to worry about cars.

This polisher, dating from around 4,000 BC, is a quartz block of modest size, 1.25 m by 0.50 m, barely level with the grass. On its surface, there are a dozen parallel grooves and a basin. The bowl was used to polish flints and the grooves to sharpen the edges of axes. Excavations have uncovered polished axes, one of which is jade. The place is also called "Pierre de Saint-Benoît". Because according to one of the legends attached to this monument, it would be Saint Benedict petrified: the pink veins that run through the block would be the veins of the saint and the grooves his ribs. The water in the basin is said to have curative and febrifuge properties: feverish people came on pilgrimage, sprinkled themselves with this water and placed offerings in the grooves, hoping for the cure of their ailments. It is reached by a little busy and very pleasant little road.

The Sélune river gradually opens from here to form a vast bay and flow into the ocean a few kilometers further. You can see the old Pontaubault bridge there.
