What can we tell you about the Brière? That it's France's second-largest marsh, that it's an exceptional collection of natural environments and wetlands where over 3,350 plant and animal species have been identified, where thousands of migratory birds can be seen, where you can hear the song of the white-throated bluebird and watch herons, egrets and ducks...
Covering more than 50,000 hectares, criss-crossed by canals as far as the eye can see, the Grande Brière is one of the largest wetlands in France.
The water is everywhere, the canal gently lapping under the barge. You absolutely must explore the marshes in this traditional flat-bottomed boat, which was the daily means of transport for the Briérons. An exceptional natural landscape shaped by the hand of man (but no, that's not a contradiction), the Brière is an invitation to enjoy the privilege of slowness and contemplation.
La Brière is ... a feeling of "the end of the world", a landscape with an infinite horizon.
