Descriptif

At the southern tip of the island, Saint-Trojan-les-Bains, a seaside resort since 1898, listed in 1983, has retained its charm of yesteryear with its seafront, beautiful 20th-century villas, typical oyster port with painters and art galleries, grouped together under the name "Village d'inspiration des Peintres", pine forest and sandy beaches.



During the Belle Epoque, Saint-Trojan adopted the sea-bathing craze. It became the main seaside resort on the island of Oleron. The therapeutic and recreational aspects of the ocean combined to accentuate its appeal.

As a result, the Saint Trojan seafront saw the emergence of chalets and cottages, typical seaside architecture where freedom is expressed through the marriage of brick and stone, with colorful ceramics instilling a cheerful spirit.



Saint-Trojan-les-Bains is also a natural setting where flora and fauna are well represented. The 37-hectare Marais des Bris, a sensitive natural area, is a fine example, where canals, reeds, meadows and bushes intermingle.



From the old village to the seaside villas, this pleasant walk takes you on a discovery of the history of Saint-Trojan, punctuated by the whims of the ocean and the dune.



Long circuit option: 8 km (following the Pacaud dike, to discover the Marais des Bris)
