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.

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.
