sports weekend with friends
Are you going for a 100% sports weekend in Brittany in May with your friends? Sunday sports enthusiasts, seasoned hikers or thrill seekers, there's something for everyone!
Warm-up on the GR34
Pink sandstone cliffs, hidden coves and an isolated fortress are on the agenda for your first day in Brittany in May. You guessed ? We are talking to you about the GR34, voted best GR by the French in 2018, just that! Known as the Sentier des Douaniers, this hiking route is a must on a spring weekend.
Sand yachting session
Do you dream of a good bowl of adrenaline? Let's go for a session of yachting on the beaches of Brittany. Trim and bump the sail as you please at the controls of your racing car! One thing to know: it is facing the wind that you have to position yourself to stop your race.
Two possible places for your initiation
Sables-d'Or-les-Pins
Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer
Sailors at heart will rather opt for an initiation to kitesurfing or a session of sea kayaking!
Pedal strokes on the banks of the Rance
To end this May weekend in style, go for a bike ride along the Rance. Pedal at your own pace from lock to lock until Léhon, Small City of Character©.
Stick your head out of the handlebars to push the doors of Saint-Magloire abbey and stroll through the cobbled streets of the town. If you still have a little strength in your calves, climb up to the castle perched on its feudal mound and admire a breathtaking view.
Another walk is worth the detour from the port of Dinan! Take the road towards Saint-Samson-sur-Rance to the port of Lyvet which precedes the Châtelier lock.

DIY workshop, shore fishing and boating with the family
Whether you have budding adventurers or little sailors at home, a long weekend in Brittany in May will satisfy the desires of the whole family.
Creative workshop
The weekend starts gently with a delicious sweet note! Take a seat in the tea room (and shop) Eléonore's happiness, located on the pretty and charming port of Guildo. With Éléonore, the whole family gets involved! Manufacture of natural products, flower drying workshop or introduction to the art of ceramics, the choice is yours!
Introduction to shore fishing
At the end of May, it's high tide time! Take advantage of the vast expanses of sand that emerge to introduce your family to shore fishing. A national Breton sport to be practiced with care! We advise you to call on a qualified guide for responsible and safe fishing. Go to the Tourist Office to organize your outing and bring back crabs, clams and razor clams for lunch.
Over the water on the Rance
Do you prefer having your feet in the water rather than on the sand? Taking to the open sea by boat will certainly give a summer air to your spring weekend! Let yourself be guided or become the own captain of your boat by sailing aboardan electric boat along the Rance. On board sailors!
