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).

Lock No. 19 of Maclaye-Painfaut

Highlight • Structure

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.

Towpath on the Nantes-Brest canal

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Superb landscape along the Canal to Redon. Note the possibility of renting Canoes and the presence of an adventure course along the canal in St Vincent sur Oust

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!

Historic centre of Malestroit

Highlight • Historical Site

Thanks to its half-timbered houses, its stone facades and its sculptures, Malestroit is labeled “city of character”.

A thousand-year-old village, Malestroit still houses houses from the 15th and 16th centuries as well as locks, mills and churches full of stories.

The Oust River and Its Locks

Highlight (Segment) • River

The canal takes advantage of a long flat stretch of the Oust river; also great for biking 🚴

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.
