Mushroom know how...
It is said that any pharmacist in France will be able to tell you the species and edibility of any fungus you can find in the fields and hedgerows... but if you want to learn the ins and outs of fungus foraging them make sure you are in Bussière Galant on the second Sunday in October, when there is a mushroom festival. Experts will show you edible varieties of fungi, and will point out those that are dangerous at the same time... increasing both your enjoyment and safety!

Bussière Galant and its velo rail
Bussière Galant is an absolute paradise for those who love being out of doors. There are some brilliant family activities based in or around the village, one of the most intriguing being the velo rail... a sort of double bicycle that works by pedalling and runs along a railway line... a great way to discover the surrounding countryside and to exercise as well!! The velo rail seats four, so it's a family friendly too!
|
An outdoors paradise
The region is also known for its leisure lakes, whose safe calm waters and sandy beaches are perfect for family days out, and its wider spectrum of sporting opportunities. These range from rock climbing and abseiling to archery, golf and horse-riding, through to paragliding and petanque!
|
How to get there
The village has a railway station that links it to larger towns and cities, so it is very accessible. The airport of Limoges which is served by Ryanair and flybe, is near enough (about 20 minutes drive) to be very convenient too, and when the new airport at Brive la Gaillard opens, there will be even more choice for travel to and from the UK!
