The journey from Feins to Guipry was very flat and scenic alongside the Canal d’Ille-et-Rance and the Vilaine river, with a vertical ascent of only 370ft, mostly on an off-road path without any traffic. The route went through Rennes which turned out to be a good place to stop for a galette for lunch. There were many people out on various rivercraft but fewer and fewer cyclists as I got further away from Rennes.

Checked in for €8 to the municipal campsite at Guipry in the evening.
