Brière Evasion

In the heart of the Brière, take the time to explore a region shaped by water, reeds, and traditions.

From the Port de la Pierre Fendue, the tour begins gently before heading into the heart of the marsh. There, the guide steers the boat with a pole, using traditional methods, and shares insights into the local flora and fauna, fishing, hunting, and life in the marsh. It’s a peaceful immersion in a unique landscape, surrounded by silence, nature, and local Brière anecdotes.

To extend the experience, you can also opt for a horse-drawn carriage ride through Saint-Lyphard and its famous thatched-roof cottages. Along the way, you’ll discover the history of thatched roofs, the traditional crafts of yesteryear, and the local legends that give the village its charm. Not far from there, Kerhinet, with its timeless atmosphere, also invites you to take a leisurely stroll.

An authentic getaway to slow down, observe, and let yourself be carried away by the spirit of the Brière.
