Crossing Sylve d'Argenson

From Rimbault (Deux-Sevres) to Saleignes (Charente-Maritime)

44km

Sylve d'Argenson's rich history intertwines with the region's social and political evolution. Its name, translating to "Argenson's Wood," pays homage to Michel d'Argenson, a prominent French statesman during the 18th century. Over time, the forest has served various purposes, from providing timber for shipbuilding to serving as a hunting ground for nobility. Sylve d'Argenson harbors a remarkable diversity of flora and fauna, with over 800 plant species and 150 bird species. The woodland's varied topography, encompassing lowlands, hills, and lakes, contributes to its rich ecological tapestry.
