ドンフロント・エン・ポワレのおすすめランニングルート

Magnificent, a must-see.

priory of sainte ortaire

chapel of Saint Ortaire, Saint Radegonde.

beautiful lake that you can run around.

Interesting castle ruin with a very good view. Ideal for a small picnic. The castle was built by Henry I, King of England from 1100 to 1135.

A very pretty medieval town with old buildings and, unfortunately, many closed shops. The church of St. Julien is particularly worth a visit.

Nice walk, especially in dry weather. The last 200 meters have to go through water. But definitely do it in the summer.

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.
