La Garette

Small village in lush greenery. It is a large pedestrian street with market garden barns on either side. Almost every house has its own little private landing stage.

Beautiful paths through forests, over and along canals. Not much going on with the exception of Coulon, where there are tons of tourist boats waiting. Arcais is very nice.
