In Bain-de-Bretagne, the bicycle is the best key to open the door to a land of bocage, hedgerows and winding paths. Renting a bike in Bain-de-Bretagne gives you the freedom to pedal from the village to the big pond, skim along the water to the rhythm of the sails, then put the bike down for a picnic on the grass, the sound of lapping water in the background.

Then head for the quiet little roads that lead to the Teillay forest. Beneath the oaks and pines, the trails are gentle and shady, perfect for a family loop or a more athletic outing over a series of clearings. In places, a "voie verte" (greenway) is a natural guide to the Vilaine valley and its landscapes of meadows, bridges and soothing meanders.
