Port d'Arçais

Highlight • Settlement

Starting point for the "wet" part of the Marais poitevin. On the port, we discover the narrow canals, the conches and the flat-bottomed boats. Picturesque.

Chain ferry (out of service)

Highlight • Other

This Tuesday July 30, 2024, the chain ferry to cross the Sèvre Niortaise is working perfectly. A very pleasant experience during a beautiful bike ride in the heart of the wet Poitevin marshes.

Bazoin Lock

Highlight • Structure

The Bazoin lock is located on the Pomère Canal. It's a nice place to take a break and watch the boats.

The chain boat is accessible again 👍 Very beautiful course with varied landscapes: edge of Sèves, forest, alfalfa field... Be careful, 1 km from the finish, a very narrow passage bordered on each side by brambles.

The tour is really nice, suitable for everyone, no elevation gain. Be careful when arriving in Arçais from St-Hilaire la Palud, at km 26, at the crossroads you have to follow opposite, or the path can be invaded by brambles, so it is worth turning right by the conche du Frêne.
Good road
