Canal from Nantes to Brest - Canal de Blavet
In the great tradition of Miam Miam Dodo, the Hiker's Guide to the Nantes to Brest Canal is the essential guide to prepare your hike in the best conditions. We give you ALL the information you need for the life of a hiker or biker.
From the city of Dukes to the north of Finistère, the Nantes-Brest canal crosses Brittany from one side to the other. You will have the opportunity to discover the valleys of Erdre, Vilaine, Aulne and Blavet in a different way. With a length of 360 km, the canal has no fewer than 236 locks. From one lock to another, crossing unspoilt nature, this route will take you to the heart of small, unique towns, at the foot of numerous ports and striking medieval fortresses.
The “plus”: the Miam Miam Dodo Canal guide from Nantes to Brest lists numerous accommodations, restaurants & services all along the waterway. Within a radius of 5 km on either side of the canal, we have listed hotels, campsites, guest houses, stopover lodges, restaurants, creperies, pizzerias, cafes, bakeries, grocery stores, delicatessens, post offices, days markets, communal and religious festivals, etc. Prices and conditions are specified, so that you know exactly where you put your bag, and that you have the choice of accommodation according to your tastes and the thickness of your door -cash.
