From Marigny to the Chizé Forest
A very natural route crossing the northern tip of the Chizé Forest in the first part and the countryside west of Marigny in the second part. This route with its varied and relaxing landscapes offers a peaceful moment. You may see deer and birds in this area. Marigny was the home of a great Poitevin bard: Yves Rabaut.
The Essarts circular route from the Maison Forestière du Pas Trop Fort
A very nature-oriented walk in the Chizé Forest, starting from the Maison Forestière du Pas Trop Fort. The heavily shaded route allows you to explore a well-structured forest in the first section, with forest lanes, paths, etc. The second section follows a path that winds more, breaking up the monotony one sometimes feels in the forest.

A pleasant walk north-east of Fors in countryside alternating between hedgerows and open fields. The very natural route also allows you to explore the built heritage, ancient witnesses to the past.
Melusine's bathtub, in the secret of the Chizé Forest
A pleasant hike to discover the southern part of the Chizé forest. This route offers a peaceful and shaded moment in nature in a forest with remarkable trees.
A walk along the banks of the Mère
A pleasant walk through a marshy area to the east of Épannes. It appears that the Marquis de Cugnac developed the Mère and the Courance. He also donated several marshes, which were then used as communal pasture or cultivated marshes. This route allows you to discover all these developments and the state of this area, which varies greatly between marshes, woods and bocage.
From Les Terres Morrines to Le Peu via the Chiron Mallet
A long walk across the Niort-Brioux plain, taking in open fields and hillsides. The landscape varies greatly, from the plateau at the start of the route to the Guirande valley, ending near L’Abîme after passing at the foot of Le Peu.
Boucle de Mairé
This route allows you to discover: the church of the former parish of Mairé, the porch of an old farm in Haut-Mairé, the old wash house in Bas-Mairé, the Motte Saint-Denis, the Saint-Pierre church and the 12th-century Hosannière Cross. All this while travelling through the countryside on pleasant flat paths that cross the Guirande (a tributary of the Sèvre Niortaise).
Short walk south of Prahecq
Be extremely careful when walking along the D124 road (approximately 180 to 200 m) as vehicles travel very fast. This is the only "negative" part of this short walk, but it is important to note it.
To avoid missing them, pay attention to points (3) and (4), which are not field/meadow entrances but grassy paths.
No difficulty.
Around Les Noues, La Prêle and Traine-Bois
A lovely walk around the Guirande in the plain to the south-west of Prahecq. This easy route winds through a hedgerow-lined countryside where the paths meander between the Guirande and intermittent streams.
Route starting from Aulnay
This walk, combining heritage and nature, allows you to discover one of the finest surviving Romanesque churches, a superb dovecote, wash houses and the keep of the old castle.
The Green Venice: La Garette - Coulon
In the heart of the Green Venice, you will reach its capital, Coulon, after leaving the village of La Garette.
La Garette is one of the most typical villages in the Green Venice. Its 800-metre-long pedestrian street is lined with old fishermen's and farmers' houses.
Coulon is a major tourist attraction in the Marais Poitevin, the capital of the "Venise Verte", i.e. its eastern part also known as the "wet marsh", as opposed to the "dry marsh".
The marsh between La Garette and Le Vanneau
Starting from the Garette Leisure Park, you will walk through the heart of the Marais Poitevin, mostly on dirt tracks, to Le Vanneau. After the port of this village, you will cross magnificent vegetable gardens and return to your starting point along creeks, canals and ditches crossed by beautiful, sturdy footbridges. There's no reason why you can't do this route by bike.
Marshlands and wash houses of Saint-Georges-de-Rex
This route will allow you to discover the rich flora and fauna of the marshes along the white paths, as well as the small protected and restored rural heritage in the heart of the village of Saint-Georges-de-Rex.
