Getting around by train Morbihan

This summer train - also known as the Tire-Bouchon (corkscrew) - links Auray to the Quiberon peninsula throughout the summer season, making it easy to get around in the height of summer, and offering exceptional views of the whole Quiberon peninsula. Departing from Auray, it serves Belz-Ploermel, Plouharnel-Carnac, les Sables Blancs, Penthièvre, l'Isthme, Kerhostin, Saint-Pierre Quiberon and finally Quiberon. It's a sightseeing trip that's well worth taking, and one that avoids the many annoying traffic jams that quickly arise in July and August...

Arrive directly in the Gulf of Morbihan and enjoy your stay without further delay, with a city center accessible on foot. With the LGV, Vannes has never been so close to Paris! 2 hours 18 minutes! You can also use the station to link up with other Breton towns: Questembert, Quimper, Saint-Brieuc, Lorient... Petit Futé's little extra: don't miss the organic vegetable stall and the tube of flowers on Friday afternoons! On the car park on the other side of the street, buses and inter-regional coaches(low cost) are easily accessible.

The Lorient station was built to remind us of the maritime history of the city: long lines as thin as those of a boat, made of wood, full of transparency thanks to the many windows that let in the light. Inside, the design is ultra-modern with the large footbridge and escalators. 155 years after seeing the first train in Lorient, the new station has come a long way... Especially when we know that it now only takes us 3 hours to get to Paris! Outside, there's a huge forecourt that's very pleasant for pedestrians.

After major renovation work, Lorient station has been totally transformed, ensuring the best possible services for travelers. Trains will take you to Quimper on one side and to Vannes, Nantes and Paris on the other. Buses are also available at the adjacent bus station and will take you throughout the city, but also more widely in the rest of the department and Brittany. On the catering side, a Tibs offers you good and fresh products to accompany your trip or to taste on the spot.

The Napoleon Express is a tourist train that links Pontivy to Camors, along the Blavet valley. Several stations are served, making your trip flexible. You can visit Saint-Nicolas-des-Eaux, Saint-Rivalain and Quistinic. What is special about this trip? This magnificent journey is done in railcars dating from the 1950s and 1970s. If you are passionate about trains, landscapes, culture and heritage, your activity of the day is just right! More information on schedules and prices on the association's website.
