Venise Verte

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Venise Verte is part of the Marais Poitevin in western France . It consists of two spatially separated canal systems connected by the Sèvre Niortaise and several other canals and thus resembles the Spreewald . From a tourist point of view, it is not that crowded and offers a variety of travel options for canoeists .

The main town in Venise Verte is Coulon with a wide range of rental boats and trips in typical flat wooden boats, which are pounded in the flat canals. In addition to Magné , Damvix and Maillé, there is another touristic place Arçais , which is not directly on the Sèvre Niortaise and is connected to it via several canals.
