"I first cycled through Brittany in the fall of 2001. I had cycled through much of France but Brittany was a region that I hadn’t yet explored. As anyone who has been here can attest, one should not underestimate this region, for its seduction is as strong as any other in France.
There is over 1,200 km of coastline, with rocky promontories, impressive castles, secluded beaches and seaside villages; the interior boasts quaint hamlets, beautiful farmhouses and moors of yellow broom and purple heather, and the gently rolling roads are perfectly suited for biking. Best of all is the hospitality; the people are a genuine and proud people and anxious to welcome you to this undiscovered corner of France."
- Robbin M., Owner of Randonnée Tours
