Surrounded by the arms of the Dronne<\/strong>, the town of Brant\u00f4me is an island<\/strong>.\nThis special situation between stone and water has earned it the nickname of the ” Green Venice of the P\u00e9rigord<\/strong> “.\nA magical destination, Brant\u00f4me offers postcard-perfect scenery<\/strong> and unique sites, such as the Benedictine abbey<\/a>, a monastery originally built in troglodyte rock<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The course of the Dronne lends itself to canoe and gabare trips<\/strong>, as well as the spectacular nautical jousts<\/strong> that liven up summer evenings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
