Bon-Repos Abbey

Former abbey now in ruins. Interesting place, in the immediate vicinity of the canal, but plan to cross if you want to approach the abbey because it is located on the opposite bank to the Vélodyssée track.

One of the many locks on the canal near the village of Pléalauff. Just after, the bridge allowing you to cross the canal and reach the wash house. All on the Vélodyssée route.
