The Lac du Salagou takes you into another world. Embedded by round hills and vineyards, the lake is relatively central in the Hérault department. The red earth always reminds me a little of Australia. It also creates great contrasts between the lake, the green vegetation and the blue sky. You can do great tours around the lake. With the touring bike it gets a bit impassable in some places, but you can reach cozy little bays where you can be all to yourself. Here and there messages appear along the way, which were laid out with small white stones on the red background. If you want, you can also leave a little message yourself. The white stones are mostly found on the roadside.

Lake Salagou

Highlight • Lake

Cycling around Lac du Salagou offers a breathtaking mix of beautiful scenery and vibrant colours, especially with the contrast between the reds of the earth and the deep blues of the water. The lake, created by a dam in the 1960s, lies in a picturesque valley surrounded by rolling hills and rocky outcrops, making it an ideal place for road cyclists to explore.
