Summer Trip - Day 39 - Lac de Guerlédan

We drove to St Aignan and parked next to the Nantes Brest Canal. We cycled along it to Pontivy, about 18km away. This section was disused, some of the locks were broken and fallen trees were blocking it.


At Pontivy we got a map and walking tour from Tourist Information, which was on a boat.


We walked round the old part of town, which was interesting.


The walk ended at the castle, which was closed because a wall had fallen down and was being restored.


We then cycled further along the canal to two sets of ten locks, which were in use now.


We cycled all the way back then, making a total of 58km. It was mostly cloudy today, with a little sunshine later. For dinner we had tartiflette, made with camembert, potatoes, onions and lardons.
