A cycling holiday in Brittany between earth and ocean

Free time of arrival in Rennes, check-in at your accommodation during reception hours.

The lively and active capital of Brittany welcomes you. Stroll along the Ille and Vilaine rivers, discover this lively city whose architecture mixes styles and eras. Immerse yourself in the heart of Brittany by tasting galettes and crêpes on a sunny terrace.

You follow the quays to the Ille et Rance canal and continue your escapade by the towpaths. Don't miss the Maison du Canal, a museum that retraces the stages of its construction.

The locks, numerous and lively, will give rhythm to your bike ride.

Continue along the canal and towpath. Take time to explore the medieval town of Lehon with its splendid Royal Abbey.
In Dinan, don’t miss taking a look at the 43 meter high "Tour de l’Horloge" which consists of both a dungeon and a bell tower.

The greenway, a road reserved for bicycles, goes away from the canal to wind between fields and forests along an old railway.

You arrive in the heart of the seaside town of Dinard. Ride along the large villas overlooking the sea and walk on the beach among the small two-colored huts, which make the charm of Dinard before embarking for Saint-Malo.

You take a boat from Compagnie Corsaire with your bikes from Dinard to Saint-Malo. The crossing takes 10 minutes.

Take advantage of your day off to discover Saint-Malo, its privateers' houses, its pedestrian streets, its ramparts and its tall ships moored at the quay.

Today’s ride takes you along the wild, sandy beaches of the Mont-Saint-Michel. Ride at your own pace as you gaze at the magnificent abbey. You could enjoy some water activities in Hirel or bike directly through the countryside to Dol-de-Bretagne. This medieval town is dominated by the 13th century massive cathedral. Climb the Tour-Notre-Dame for outstanding views of the area.

Let’s get ready, your daily step takes you to the world-famous Mont-Saint-Michel Abbey! The gravity defying medieval monastery will astound you as you explore this massive building.

Follow the banks of the Couesnon which winds through the countryside and the small typical villages of Brittany.
You arrive in Fougères, a beautiful medieval town. On the borders of Brittany, Maine and Normandy, Fougères was one of the most important stronghold of Europe in the Middle Ages. The impressive fortress still testifies of this golden age.

From Fougères, you arrive to Vitré through a comfortable cycle path. Vitré is another amazing town which has beautifully preserved its medieval appearance.

On the left bank of the Vilaine, a rocky spur bears the spectacular triangular fortress and the rich mansions of the upper town. But do not miss the right bank where the steep slopes house the timber-framed Faubourg of Rachapt, preserved in the 20th century thanks to its knitters.
