Discover
the Lac de la Cavayère!
Description Born of the ashes of a 1985 fire that devastated
the sector, the lake of la Cavayère is a splendid retaining reservoir
of 1.5 million cubic metres covering a surface area of 18 hectares. It
took sixths to build the dam (155m long, 23m high, 142m thick at the base
and 5m thick at the top), working from May through November 1988.Located
near the Medieval City's sensitive boundaries, in a natural environment,
the lake shelters an abundance of editerranean vegetation spread over
40 hectares and fills the vales of three waterways (the creeks of Bazalac,
Mitgé, Montirat), hence its distinctive configuration.
The lake of la Cavayère is not just for taking a stroll. It is also a
health resort, an amusement park, a place where adults and children can
have fun, a special place where you can relax within a stone's throw from
Carcassonne.
With its picnic areas (with barbecue), children's games, water sports,
sandy beaches and grassy edges, fishing, and the ideal place for walking,
this lake is a true haven of peace, freshness and delight.
