Saint-Nicolas-de-Redon, between nature and history along the water
Welcome to Saint-Nicolas-de-Redon, a charming riverside town, located at the crossroads of the Vilaine rivers and the Nantes-Brest canal. With its green landscapes, locks and rich industrial past, the town offers a peaceful and authentic getaway in Loire-Atlantique.
A heritage marked by navigation
Saint-Nicolas-de-Redon has long been a strategic river centre, serving as a link between Brittany and the Atlantic. Its marina, nestled along the canal, bears witness to its former commercial importance. Discover this river town by strolling to the Bellion lock, where you can watch the boats pass by and enjoy a bucolic setting ideal for a nature break.
A preserved natural setting between marshes and canals
The surroundings of Saint-Nicolas-de-Redon are perfect for hiking and cycling, especially along the Nantes-Brest canal, offering serene landscapes between rivers and meadows. Go by canoe or electric boat to discover the Redon marsh and its exceptional biodiversity.
A gastronomy with Breton and Loire influences
The city, on the border between Brittany and the Pays de la Loire, offers specialties combining seafood and Loire region products. We recommend tasting a fish from the Vilaine accompanied by a Muscadet sauce, or a buckwheat crepe filled with cheese and smoked ham.
