Departure from Saint-Didier (Ille-et-Vilaine) (Ille-et-Vilaine)
Take a stroll through the countryside around Saint-Didier on this route which runs alongside a stretch of the River Vilaine. You’ll pass close to the Peinière Chapel, a place of pilgrimage which, every 15 August and on the Sunday closest to the Feast of the Nativity in early September, attracts thousands of Catholics from across the department (and even beyond) to celebrate the Virgin Mary. Stop for a moment to admire the mosaics created by the Odorico brothers that adorn the altars.
