Grand port of the River

Highlight • River

Very small pier from where you can set off in a flat-bottomed boat to explore the canals of the Marais Poitevin. There is a bench overlooking the canal, a nice little break.

Bac à chaînes

This Tuesday July 30, 2024, the chain ferry to cross the Sèvre Niortaise is working perfectly. A very pleasant experience during a beautiful bike ride in the heart of the wet Poitevin marshes.

Starting point for the "wet" part of the Marais poitevin. On the port, we discover the narrow canals, the conches and the flat-bottomed boats. Picturesque.
