À vélo de Saint-Malo à Cancale

This lovely cycling route takes you from the iconic walled city of St-Malo to the charming oyster haven of Cancale, covering about 16 km—perfect for a morning spin or a leisurely afternoon ride. St-Malo, famous for its dramatic tides and impressive granite ramparts, makes a picturesque starting point. You’ll roll out mostly on quiet roads, feeling the salty breeze as you trace the scenic north Brittany coastline.

Along the way, expect gentle climbs (just over 80 meters of ascent) and mostly paved surfaces, though you’ll want to be prepared for a few stretches where the path is a bit more rustic. Farmland, countryside, and glimpses of the sea keep things interesting all the way.

Your reward at the end is Cancale, a small seaside town renowned for its delicious oysters and stunning views over the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel. Why not treat yourself to a dozen fresh oysters when you arrive? This route is perfect for soaking up Brittany’s coastal beauty without too much hustle—bon voyage!
