A treat to push a little

The Ille-et-Rance Canal, which connects Rennes and Saint-Malo, is the oldest canal in Brittany. It is made up of three sections, including the one at this location. The canal is then made up of the bed of the Ille.

Nowadays, only very few mills are still in operation in their original function, but they appear to hikers and cyclists along the river or canal as technical and historical monuments of an ancient craft tradition: Only through human ingenuity and the power of flowing water as driving energy, the heavy millstones inside were moved and so, for example, grain could be ground into flour (so-called grain mills) or oil could be pressed from fruits (e.g. olives) (so-called oil mills).

Circuit shared between small roads and towpath!!

The wash house is located just opposite the body of water (unfortunately not visible in the photo). Formerly used for washing, it now serves more as a historical monument.

It is a pretty lock bordered by its typical lock keeper's house.

For all levels, there is no difficulty and it is very pleasant

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.
