Situated below the Basse-Loire maritime canal, known as ‘de la Martinière’,
the Vue marsh
is a
natural area
of around
450 hectares
. Take a stroll and discover its
flora and fauna
! Keep your eyes peeled for
storks
!
A little history
:
Formerly known as the "
Buzay meadows
", this area of more or less wet marshland is subject to flooding. It extends towards the
Acheneau marsh
in the villages of
Rouans
and
Cheix-en-Retz
.
Even today, numerous freshwater arms, known as "moats" or small "canals", allow the marsh to be irrigated by opening and closing sluice gates here and there, depending on the demands of farmers and the seasons.
Here are 3 good reasons to come and discover this natural area, classified Natura 2000
:
As a land of meadows and a source of life,
the marsh
is a flat area, ideal for
walking or cycling
As an area of crops and pasture,
the marsh is a natural nesting
place for
birds
, with
many species
to be seen every season ; grey herons, sandpipers, marsh harriers, lapwings, mute swans, falcons, herring and brown gulls, black-headed gulls, coots, shoveler ducks, white storks and other migratory birds
Dive into this
labyrinth of vegetation
and come and observe the diversity of its habitat, which is home to other terrestrial and aquatic species: frogs and other amphibians, reptiles, insects, cowbirds, numerous species of fish such as eels, etc.
Practical information
You can discover the marsh from Vue by taking the route de l'île or the route du Moulin from the village towards the Canal de la Martinière, or down towards the Fontaine Sainte-Anne.
