Venise Verte – Mazeau

Highlight • River

An idyllic setting, a boat trip, by bike or on foot in the purest stereotype of the Poitevin marshes. Canes clad in crossed trees, a splendid and very relaxing natural setting.

Priory Church of Sainte-Trinité de Coulon

Highlight • Religious Site

Capital of the Green Venice, just a few kilometers from Niort, which can be reached by following the Sèvre Niortaise. There is the house of the Marais Poitevin and many small restaurants, on the banks of the river.

September 14, 2022,🇫🇷Marais Poitevin Grüne Venedig bei La Rochelle

Beautiful paths through forests, over and along canals. Not much going on with the exception of Coulon, where there are tons of tourist boats waiting. Arcais is very nice.
