Crêperie de la Rigole d'Hilvern

Highlight • Cafe

A wide variety of goods were available from a food truck.

Unfortunately, the coffee, which had been kept warm, wasn't very good. But the homemade cakes were delicious.

Locks 79 to 87 - Around Saint-Gérand

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Sequence of nine locks, seven of which are very close to each other. Boat traffic must have been very slow on this section…

Between “le Couedic”, “Parc Buisson”, “Lann Buhan”, “Parc Er Lannet” and “Keroret”, there are no less than five locks which follow one another on this part of the Nantes to Brest canal.

New cafe just on the way out of Pontivy owned by a very friendly and helpful gentleman with lots of experience and tips. He will soon have a bike repair station too! Top!

Junction Basin of the Canals

Highlight • River

Here, the Blavet meets the Nantes-Brest canal.

It was Napoleon Bonaparte, then first consul, who decided on September 17, 1802 to channel the Blavet from Pontivy to Lorient. The project was titanic and lasted more than 30 years.

This greenway follows a tiny watercourse called the Hilvern Channel. When it comes to tranquility, it's hard to find better!

61.6 kilometers long and particularly tortuous, its two ends are only 21 kilometers apart as the crow flies.
