Mont Bel-Air, Mountain summit in Trébry, Côtes-d'Armor, France.
Mont Bel-Air is a mountain in Brittany that reaches 339 meters high and represents the highest point in the department. The landscape around the summit includes forested slopes and open areas with views across the surrounding countryside.
The mountain has been an important location since ancient times, with traces of old routes visible on its slopes. A chapel was later built that became a pilgrimage destination in the early 20th century.
The chapel on the summit attracts pilgrims and hikers seeking a quiet place for reflection. Visitors today use this spot to pause and take in the views around them.
The path to the summit requires sturdy shoes and some physical stamina, as the route covers several kilometers. The best time to visit is in dry weather when the trails are in good condition.
A small stream begins on the slopes and later becomes a larger river flowing through the region. This modest start of a waterway is easy to overlook when climbing the mountain.
