This cycling trip in North Brittany makes us live intensely all the strength and the mysticism of this so particular region, which is as much amazed by its intrinsic natural beauty as by its heritage. From the Iroise Sea to Saint-Malo, from the lighthouse of the Île Vierge to the Bay of Saint Brieuc, passing by the Pointe de Corsen, Roscoff, the Pink Granite Coast or the Cap Fréhel, we will never stop being amazed. We always ride as close as possible to the Breton coast, for a unique cycling experience between land and sea, in landscapes, atmospheres and colors sometimes unsuspected. Our adventure ends in beauty in front of the Mont Saint Michel and its magnificent bay.
We will meet you at the Rennes TGV station at a predetermined time before transferring you to your hotel in Le Conquet. In the afternoon we will take the opportunity to introduce you to the program, adjust your bike and explore the charm of this small town on the Iroise coast.

We find it just after visiting the picturesque thatched hamlet of Menez-Ham whose guard house is caught in a vice and the rocks.
