Between cottages and fresh marshes Entre chaumières et marais







Circuit n° 1
Come and discover the Castle of Ranrouët, the majestic ruins of this former Medieval fortress symbolic of the tumultuous history of Brittany.
Then venture on through the villages of the Nature Park of Brière as far as Saint-Lyphard and its impressive collection of traditional thatched cottages.
On the way be sure to seize the opportunity to take a trip aboard a traditional flat-bottomed boat, the ‘chaland’ or a horse-drawn trap and discover the secrets of the marshlands. Avid nature-lover or amateur historian you’ll be spoilt for choice!
