Departure from Dinan (Côtes-d'Armor)
The second stage in the Saint-Malo region, this section links the medieval town of Dinan to the Paramé district, just past the pirate town of Saint-Malo. From the canalised banks of the Rance to Rochebonne beach, you follow the Rance valley – first along the river and then along the coast – until it meets the English Channel. After Saint-Servan, the walk becomes more urban, whilst still offering an almost unbroken view of the sea. In Paramé, it’s a truly luxurious seaside experience!
