Discover Lachapelle-Sous-Chaux

Lachapelle-Sous-Chaux offers several specific reasons to visit: hiking, fishing and horse riding. If you’re looking for a hotel for a trip to Lachapelle-Sous-Chaux, you can make your choice based on which of these activities you want to shape your stay. For hikers, the difficulty, duration and elevation gain of the Boucle de la Grande Côte are particularly relevant; fishing conditions differ between the Étangs des Ayeux and Étang Adam. The Equinoxe equestrian centre and Crêperie La Bolée du Chat add further highlights.

Hiking and local history

The long-distance hiking trail GR5 passes through Lachapelle-sous-Chaux. One specifically named hike is the Boucle de la Grande Côte: it starts in Lachapelle-sous-Chaux and leads to the Étangs des Ayeux. The route is rated difficult, is 9.8 kilometres long and has an estimated duration of 3 hours and 30 minutes. It also has 229 metres of positive elevation gain. These details help you consider the time required and the level of difficulty when planning your day. Trail markings may change, so check the current route before setting out.

The Église Saint Vincent, built in 1552, offers a link to the area’s history. This allows you to complement your stay among the trails and activities with a specific historic building.

Fishing at the Étangs des Ayeux and Étang Adam

Fishing at the Étangs des Ayeux is possible with a day or annual fishing permit. The discovery carp pond at the Étangs des Ayeux is reserved for children under 12. The team can help children discover different fishing methods and aquatic habitats. Planning a visit here therefore involves both an age restriction and the option of a guided introduction to the waters and methods.

At Étang Adam, carp fishing is permitted every weekend on the nights from Friday to Sunday, that is, for two nights. Catch and release is mandatory for all fish. Fishing conditions therefore include not only a set period over the weekend, but also a clear rule for handling all fish. Fishing regulations and the availability of guidance may change; check the current conditions before your visit.

Horse riding and Breton cuisine

The Equinoxe equestrian centre offers horse rides in Lachapelle-sous-Chaux. If a ride is part of your travel plans, check the provider’s current availability before you arrive.

At Crêperie La Bolée du Chat, homemade buckwheat galettes and wheat crêpes are prepared according to Breton tradition using fresh, local and Breton products. The two types of batter offer different meal options. Opening details may change, so check them before your visit.
