From Le Menec we moved to the next of the major alignments at Carnac, that of Kermario where there are 1,029 stones in 10 rows, and c.4,300 feet long.


The stones at Kermario are also tapered in size but at the beginning (the large stones) there doesn’t seem to be an enclosure as at Le Menec. The alignments have been spoiled and reduced by the roads, the removal of stones for house building, and the creation of a lake! Nevertheless it is an impressive site.




From the top of the old windmill there is a good view of the stones towards the west, and, in the photograph below, towards the east where fewer of the stones are left.


A manmade lake cuts through the lines of stones and beyond, on a tumulus is Manio, with lines of stones and a large standing stone or Menhir.


And in one corner, near the car park at the beginning, a giant Allée Couverte.
