Riding along the Rigole is one of the most beautiful rides I've ever had. It's at least 50km of gentle downhill on a single trail, wooded and therefore shady. I didn't meet any other cyclists and only met five walkers. The corners of my mouth were constantly almost at my ears, absolutely fantastic!

Ancient canal locks just before the confluence with the Rigole d'Hilvern. Both are accompanied by excellent tow-path bike trails. The Vélodyssée follows the Canal de Nantes à Brest.

Hilvern Trench

Highlight • River

Just next to Louarnig Park, fully equipped area with 2 boxes to leave bikes safe at night, sanitary facilities with sink, WC and shower. Perfect place to fall asleep to the sound of the water

Sequence of nine locks, seven of which are very close to each other. Boat traffic must have been very slow on this section…
