From the Ille-et-Rance canal to maritime Rance by canoe

About us

• 23 Km

Proposed by Chill In Rance, this nautical canoe trip takes place one way in 2 days, along the Ille-et-Rance canal.

Departing from Evran, roaming navigation is done independently over 23 km, from the Ille-et-Rance canal to the maritime Rance, which is reached at the Châtelier lock in Saint-Samson-sur- Rancid. From Evran to Dinan stretches a bucolic landscape, calm in all seasons and punctuated with locks, which it becomes a routine to cross... Léhon, its abbey and its gardens amaze the eye as the navigation continues towards downstream.
In maritime Rance, you sail on a body of water subject to the effect of the tides and changing landscapes, towards the estuary. Moorings, wedges, tide mills, cabins with squares pass through the landscape... so many witnesses of human activities practiced on the Rance in all eras...

It's a real adventure to live, in the middle of nature, in complete autonomy with a night in a bivouac (or in a comfort formula with accommodation). Canoeing is accessible to all and the course is very suitable for families with children.

Departures are scheduled each week from April to October by Chill-In-Rance, which organizes everything, from the departure shuttle to the delivery of road books...
