Lake Salagou

Highlight • Lake

Located in the heart of Hérault, Lake Salagou transports you to Mars. The ocher color of these lands is unlike any other. The contrast of the water and the landscapes is sublime. It is the largest lake in the department.

Lake Salagou

Highlight • Lake

An essential place in Hérault for outdoor sports (mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, paddle, fishing, etc.).
Be careful in the middle of summer, prefer sporting activities early in the morning to avoid the high heat. Little shade all around the lake.
