On the hunt for Poï'z!
The trails take you on a treasure hunt. But to get there, the path is strewn with enigmas to be solved, often full of surprises and humour. Hidden in the treasure are Poï'z, little characters with strong characters, to be collected (in the form of badges). These little imaginary beings indicate the theme of the walk: Zéfaim for gastronomy, Zouti for crafts, Zilex for prehistory, Zéroïk for medieval times...
Armed with your smartphone or GPS, set off on an adventure and discover the different routes on offer on the island of Oléron and the Marennes basin: the fortified town of Brouage, Marennes (town center and bike trail), Saint-Denis d'Oléron and Saint-Trojan-les-Bains!

Playing Terra Aventura couldn't be easier. All you need is a smartphone:
- Download the app at www.terra-aventura.fr (free Wi-Fi available at the Marennes Oléron tourist offices)
- Select your route: “Blow Up the Safe!” in Brouage (Shopping theme), “Lost in Oléron” in Saint-Denis d’Oléron (Island life theme), "The Artists’ Little Train " (Visual Arts theme) in Saint-Trojan-les-Bains, or "Ma Reine des Bourriches " (Gastronomy theme) in downtown Marennes-Hiers-Brouage, or by bike with " Moulinez Marais!" (Cycling theme).
- Find your way on the map using the app and let it guide you step by step as you solve the puzzles you’re given.
- Once you’ve found the coordinates of the final cache: be discreet and respectful of nature, take no more than one “poï’z” per person, leave a small item in exchange, write down your adventure story in the logbook, note the mystery word listed in the logbook, and put the box back where you found it. Is the box empty? Notify the tourist office immediately!
