Land and river around Port-de-Roche
The route allows you to discover the countryside between Langon, Beslé and Brain-sur-Vilaine, passing through pretty little typical villages, crossing woods and forests and ending on the towpath along the Vilaine, for more than 9 km. Most of the trail is on beautiful stone paths. The Vilaine is very popular in these areas. You will see pleasure boats and fishermen in their boats. Don't miss the egrets and grey herons on the banks of the Vilaine.

The Gannedel and Massérac Marshes
Upstream from Redon, the Vilaine valley stretches out between the hillsides that flank it to the north and south. Vast expanses of wild or cultivated marshland follow one another, through the midst of which the river flows.
