Steeped in story and legend, the Vendée has much more to offer than just its seaside landscapes. Venture inland and discover the Vendee's soul.

Marc Nagels has worked in journalism and publishing for several years. He has written books, guides and articles about heritage, tourism and gastronomy. For him, walking and writing go hand in hand with exploring new territory. His native Western France is both his home and favourite region.
After studying history and geography, Hervé Champollion worked in publishing before devoting himself to photography full-time. His contribution to numerous travel guides conveys his love of travel, natural landscapes and the remains of great civilisations. He published Ladakh-Zangskar, Yémen, Venise, Égypte pierres de lumières (Editions Hermé), La France romane, Les Cathédrales gothiques (Editions Ouest-France) and Andalousie (EDL-GEO).
