36,47 km cycling route from St-Malo to Evran

From the salty corsair city of St-Malo, a sea bus takes you across to the resort of Dinard. Then a greenway leads you south past villas, on to Dinan, a mighty medieval hilltop town. Next, follow the towpath beside the Canal d’Ille-et-Rance as far as Evran, with its charming port at the junction of various waterways. This stage takes you mostly along greenways suitable for all cyclists.

The route

This route is mainly along well-surfaced greenways, from Dinard to St-Samson-sur-Rance, then after Léhon up to Evran. Note that there’s no signage in Dinard itself. You have to use a stretch of shared road from the end of the greenway at St-Samson-sur-Rance up to the banks of the Rance at Taden.
Take care: crossing the D64 road at the locality of Bourgneuf, and crossing the D366 near Pleslin-Trigavou.

Alternative routes

When the sea bus isn’t operating between St-Malo and Dinard (mid-Nov–start Apr), you will have to take the alternative cycle route along the Rance river (This cycle route is signoposted EuroVelo 4 / Tour de manche)

Links

steep slope takes you up to the centre of Dinard.
Reaching Evran’s tourist office is easy.

Take the sea bus from St-Malo to Dinard

When possible to avoid the road over the Rance Dam. Of the two stops on the Dinard side, the one at the Cale de la Vallée is better for cyclists, as the Cale Clair de Lune one has steps to negotiate.
