Paseo rápido en bici de Rennes a Chantepie

Starting your ride in the vibrant heart of Rennes, you’ll glide southeast towards the quieter suburb of Chantepie, which lies just a short distance away. This roughly 13-kilometer route is great for both new and seasoned cyclists, as most of the way (over 90%) is on smooth, paved surfaces—mostly asphalt—so you can expect an easy roll. You’ll mostly be riding on quiet roads and dedicated cycleways, with some stretches through calm, residential “living streets,” making for a relaxed vibe.

Rennes is known for its medieval old town, lively student atmosphere, and cool weekly markets, so feel free to pause at a café before you hit the road. Chantepie, on the other hand, is a peaceful community with green spaces—perfect for a laid-back finish and maybe a picnic if the weather’s nice!

The hills are gentle, with just a touch of ascent, so you’re in for an enjoyable and accessible spin. Whether commuting or exploring, this route is a fantastic way to link two distinct sides of Rennes’ metropolitan charm.
