Charbonnière Mill

Highlight • Other

The Charbonnière mill and the surrounding area are a very good destination both on foot and by bike. The path along the canal is ideal for a loop from the city center.

Perfect stop for a loop starting in the center of Rennes, the Charbonnière mill and the canal is an inviting destination with an easy cycling path.
