Cycling Alongside the Emerald Coast of Normandy

Brittany's famous Emerald Coast is more than just a pretty coastline—it's a tapestry of granite cliffs, medieval villages, and ocean breezes. Our self‑guided cycle tour from Mont‑Dol through Saint-Malo, along the Rance Canal, to Dinan invites you to connect with history, savor seafood delicacies, and feel free as you pedal along quiet paths. 

Route Highlights

Mont‑Dol to Saint‑Malo (30–40 km/day): Begin in Mont‑Dol, a picturesque hilltop village offering sweeping views of the polders. Riding through pastoral countryside, reach Saint‑Malo—an ancient pirate port enclosed by ramparts. Explore its tidal bays, sunlit streets, and crumbling forts.

Saint‑Malo Adventures: Choose your own loop—pedal to Granville, explore tidal islands, or linger in Saint‑Malo’s cafés.

To Dinan via Rance Canal: Cycle along towpaths shaded by canal willow trees. Arrive in Dinan, stroll its cobblestone lanes, find local artisans, and soak up its medieval charm.
