Village in the Poiteven marsh - Maraise Poiteven - commonly known as Venice Verte due to the green duck weed on the canal surface. The marsh was drain with the help of Dutch canal builders and is now a maze of islets criss-crossed by picturesque canals with isolated houses, villages and few roads. Main transport is flat-bottomed boats. We saw otters as we cycled the pathways beside the canal.
