Thatch may have its own stereotypes, often originating in Normandy, but the hamlets of the Brière region surprise walkers with the number and variety of examples of the type.
Between tradition and modernity, the Brière countryside becomes an encyclopaedia of style, with the king reed as the constant.
Before heading off into the more secretive depths of the bocage, between marshes, forests and countryside, keep your eyes peeled for master roofers, tightrope walkers on the lower slopes, expert craftsmen of the palette and holders of the know-how.
From every point of view, this route offers an immersion in the atmosphere of the Brière region.
After the traditional village of Kerhinet and its characteristic thatched cottages, discover the Faillies Brières marshes.
The presence of water here has given rise to a luxuriant natural environment that is home to numerous animal and plant species, some of which are particularly rare.
