This picturesque canal, with its calm waters and lush vegetation, offers a serene towpath that you can follow.

The carrelets are fishermen's huts built on stilts. The maritime setting is fantastic, with a panoramic view of the sea as far as the eye can see, and the Aiguillon Bay National Nature Reserve.
