Salt Marshes of Île d'Olonne

Highlight • Natural

The marshes are part of the landscape, they are free to access all year round using marked hiking and cycling trails.
From June to September, during the harvest period, the salt workers are on the site of the salt marshes.
'Discussed walks' allow you to follow a salt worker for around 1 hour and discuss the marsh, the profession and all the subjects linked to this activity (context, environment, economy).
