Close to Les Rochelets campsite, take a break from the hustle and bustle of nature, amidst meadows<\/strong>, canals<\/strong> and reed beds<\/strong>, in a natural setting that’s well worth the detour! On foot, by bike, on horseback or in a rowboat, discover the Bri\u00e8re regional nature park<\/strong> during a visit to the Gu\u00e9rande peninsula<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

With its 40,000 hectares of peat bog and rich biodiversity, the Bri\u00e8re regional nature park<\/strong> has been listed since 1970. During a visit, several options are available to tourists wishing to explore the various facets of the park. Experienced hikers can follow the 68 km GRP\u00ae Tour de Bri\u00e8re<\/strong> in pursuit of the most beautiful landscapes. This hiking trail is also accessible to cyclists and horse riders. <\/p>\n\n

Considered to be one of the largest marshes in France<\/strong>, let yourself be carried along by the water in this exceptional place formed by a labyrinth of canals during a trip on a barge guided by a Bri\u00e8re guide. With its scattered islands, the Marais de Bri\u00e8re is also ideal for canoeing<\/strong>, for a trip that adapts to your pace. <\/p>\n\n

This immersion in nature will delightbirdwatchers<\/strong> and novices alike, who are keen to observe the many species of birds present, including herons, egrets and snipe.<\/p>\n\n

Explore the thatched cottage villages of La Bri\u00e8re<\/h2>\n\n

In the heart of the Bri\u00e8re<\/strong>, visitors to the park are guaranteed a change of scenery and a return to the 20th century as they explore the thatched cottage villages<\/strong>. F\u00e9drun<\/strong> and Kerhinet<\/strong> are two of the Bri\u00e8re’s hamlets with no fewer than 3,000 thatched roofs, and just as many picturesque, charming houses to contemplate. <\/p>\n\n

The village of Kerhinet<\/strong> is like an open-air museum, as it has been entirely restored in keeping withBrie architecture<\/strong>. Two interpretive trails and exhibitions complete the visit, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the daily life of the village’s inhabitants in the last century. <\/p>\n\n

Visit the museums of Bri\u00e8re<\/h2>\n\n

This beautiful natural discovery also rhymes with cultural discovery! On site, the site boasts a number of museums retracing the history of this singular place, such as the Mus\u00e9e de la Marine en bois du Brivet<\/strong> and the Mus\u00e9e de la chaumi\u00e8re bri\u00e9ronne<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

How do I get to the Bri\u00e8re Regional Nature Park from Les Rochelets campsite?<\/h2>\n\n

From the Saint-Br\u00e9vin campsite<\/strong>, it’s a twenty-minute drive to the Parc de Bri\u00e8re<\/strong>, via the Saint-Nazaire bridge.
