Tales of horse-drawn carriage rides

Ka-ta-clop, Ka-ta-clop, Ka-ta-clop..... It is the slow and regular, peaceful rhythm of the horses' steps, which effortlessly pull the carriage...

As you know, the "Great Unusual West", like the "Great Unusual South", seeks to indicate the unusual, that is, as Brassens said, "the roads that do not lead to Rome", the crossing roads... well, there, really, it is the case!

Horse-drawn carriage rides can be found in many places, but in summer, unfortunately, some of them are transformed into tourist pushers.

The ones proposed by the "carriage of life" (« L’Attelage de la vie ») are quite different. These walks are told, since the one who holds the reins is a "landscape storyteller"!

Each unique walk leads to the discovery of natural resources, along the paths of the past, along the cultural and historical heritage!

You will experience exceptional trips, around a meal.

You will discover the wide open spaces, at the time when the sun sets, letting yourself be rocked by the changing lights of the evening.

At the other end of the day, you can also enjoy morning walks, around breakfast, at a time when the fog is still unravelling on the marshes, when the songs of the migratory birds reveal their presence...

Ka-ta-clop, Ka-ta-clop, Ka-ta-clop..... Have a good trip!
