At this former station there are many different train sets in very different conditions. We also saw carriages from the Montblanc tramway. Tram rides are offered.

Bon-Repos Abbey

Highlight • Other

Former abbey now in ruins. Interesting place, in the immediate vicinity of the canal, but plan to cross if you want to approach the abbey because it is located on the opposite bank to the Vélodyssée track.

Le Roc'h loop, Blavet Valley, Nantes to Brest Canal

Highlight • Other

With the geomorphological uprising of the Brittany mass, the Blavet River cut its bed deep into the ancient rocks, leaving just enough space for a beautiful secluded bike trail, too windy for a road.
