Impossible or extremely difficult to pass. Road uphill along motorway into Saint Malo closed for cyclists. Alternative trough park is extremely steep. Didi it with luggage and barely made it.

Impressive technical structure. Unfortunately, the exhibition was closed when we visited. I am interested in the question of whether there is a fish ladder and much more about the technology.

Highest point of the Agglomeration of Saint-Malo, view over the Rance estuary. Numerous nearby trails on foot or MTB/Gravel

A pretty little peaceful port on the banks of the Rance. The road, however, is certainly less peaceful in season 😅.

The viaduct spans the valley spectacularly, and it's particularly beautiful from the harbor.

I drove past it twice. The door was open. It's worth a look inside. Small but nice. With a lot of history.
