Charente
Charente is one of the most beautiful areas to navigate on. On the region's water way, which is about 100 miles long, there are only 21 locks in total. In 1977 a huge restoration program was initiated here which was finished in 1984. Since then it has become possible to navigate easily on the water because high water can now flow off quickly. The water level is more or less equal as a consequence of this.
The Charente River runs smoothly and calmly through woods and meadows. Discover the picturesque vine villages of Charente with their typical architecture and let yourself be spoiled by the region's cuisine after a day on the water. Charente is also the region of pineau and cognac. A visit to the cognac cellars will disclose to you the secrets of this brandy.
