    Description

    I have a project to sail to the Feroes islands in 2026 .. in the meantime i plan to go regularly to my sailboat to prepare it and to sail a bit ! It is in "La Roche Bernard", a beautiful small town in Bretagne between Nantes and Vannes on the Vilaine River.
    Around la roche bernard there is some trekking possibilities : along "La Vilaine", or hitchhiking up to the sea (Penestin, Damgan/penerf, golf du morbihan .. a lot of amazing places !)
