24.06.2026 Day 14 - Saint-Samson-sur-Rance - Tinténiac. Pleasant ride along a canal, early camping with pool

After one relaxing day on a camping, I decided that cycling before noon should work. Started at seven and reached camping Domaine Les Peupliers around 10:30 after a coffee break in Tinténiac, a small pictoresque village close by.

At seven I guess it was around 20 degrees, pleasant cycling. Nice and easy route along the Canal d'Ille et Rance, which runs largely parallel to the small Rance river.

Along the Canal d'Ille et Rance

Bridge in Dinan

Quite a few locks in the canal

The locks seem to be manually served (and don't carry very large ships)

While I'm writing this in the afternoon, it is REALLY HOT again.

Dutch news note saying yesterday was the hottest day ever measured in France. I was there!


Red alert



I will try to get past Rennes tomorrow

42 km that took me 2:30 hours. Total distance 1211 km.
