De bedste gå- og vandreture omkring Hédé-Bazouges

The Hédé lock ladder is made up of eleven locks spread over two kilometers, with a gradient of 27 meters. These are traditional manual locks made of wood. It is pleasant to walk along the canal, especially since several works of art mark the route.

Ille Flottante offers unusual accommodation on the Ille-et-Rance canal: on the water in 5 boats / 5 different atmospheres, in old horse boxes or in an old rig washed up in the meadow. There are also bicycles, small boat rentals, a bar and catering on site as well as a regional products shop for a gourmet break.

Built in the 19th century, this lock is located 2 km from the town of Tinténiac and is part of a set of 11 locks crisscrossing the Ille et Rance canal.

From Hede to Dinan, cycle path along the river, fantastic nature. Worth a stop in Lehon, where you find the royal abbey and a beautiful garden. Dinan, a very characteristic medieval town to visit in half a day.

To take a break or eat along the canal. Possibility of unusual accommodation also.

Very pretty place. Well maintained and with an artistic background 👍. For some time now a bicycle repair station available to cyclists and free of charge. Well done and thank you to the Brittany region 👨‍🔧👩‍🔧

A series of 11 locks over a little more than 2 kilometers, roughly one every 200 meters, allows boats to overcome a 27-meter difference in elevation. It's a veritable aquatic elevator on the banks of the Ille-et-Rance Canal. The locks are still operated manually, and each one has its own lock keeper's house in the Napoleonic style.
