Let's explore the marsh aboard a chaland
To unravel the mystery of this vast marsh, you have to explore in by ‘chaland’ barge, the only boat permitted in the indivisible marsh. La Brière is therefore, a space for nature lovers above all else. It can be visited on foot, by bike or on horseback, whether you’re exploring around the saltwater or freshwater marshes or taking a peek around the villages of thatched cottages.Ready to make a tour in a 'chaland' ?
