Sidobre Rocks – Trail of Wonders

Highlight • Natural Monument

If the Sidobre (region in the south of the Massif Central, a few minutes from Castres) is known for its granite territory rich in chaos and monoliths, the wonder trail is certainly one of the most famous routes. The latter allows you to discover a number of remarkable blocks with evocative names.

Lac du Merle

Highlight • Lake

Small lake covered with hundreds of water lilies! Not enough water and too much mud to make it a swimming lake but it's a bird's paradise.
