LAKE OF SAINT-FERRÉOL
This lake nestled in a beautiful setting is a popular destination for a day at the water's edge
Nestled in a valley on the course of the Laudot, the lake of Saint-Ferréol is surrounded by the wooded peaks of the Black Mountain. Built from 1667, this artificial basin is the main reservoir of the Canal du Midi. Its 800 m long dike is classified by the Monuments Historiques. The banks, planted with pine trees, form a beautiful walking area while the resort - since the 1930's - offers a leisure base in fine weather. Below, you will find a museum that tells its history and you can admire waterfalls and water sprays.

L'hiver le site retrouve son calme, mais ne perd pas son charme. Les conifères qui entourent le lac lui donnent un aspect toujours vert
La promenade sur la digue offre une vue magique sur le lac.
Tous les 10 ans, le lac est vidangé pour des travaux de renforcement de la digue, de nettoyage, etc..
Le spectacle est grandiose. Après la vidange de l'hiver 2016, rendez-vous à l'hiver 2026 pour la prochaine !
