Nantes–Brest Canal — Scenic Landscape

Highlight • River

the landscape is constantly changing - nothing uniform - beautiful landscapes.
We thought the Loire was the highlight - no - it gets even better, driving through Brittany here. Simply indescribable.

Magpie Island

Highlight • Natural

Very nice view of the island from the canal. There is the possibility of taking a break with a beautiful view of the rocks of the island (café which also offers food, and picnic tables).

At these beautifully plant-decorated locks the canal Nantes-à-Brest is in a separate channel next to the Oust River for a short distance, where you can enjoy the typical authentic natural landscape.

Nantes–Brest Canal between Saint-Congard and Malestroit

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Ideally located between the canal and the forest, this section of cycle path is very quiet while offering a passable surface for all types of bike.

A very pleasant passage of the Eurovélo 1 cycle route!
