Here you can / must be your own ferryman to cross the Sèvre Niortaise.
However, it takes some time to study the instructions for using the boat, to be able to handle the chain, and - for the first time - to have self-confidence. On the west side is a campsite, at the counter you can reward yourself before or after the crossing with a café.
