Discover
the Lac de la Cavayère!
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.
If you walk all the way around the lake (in about an hour) you'll discover
a wide variety of landscapes and environmental conditions, from freshness
to aridity, from woods to wastelands, from shadow to full light. You'll
notice this region's three dominating hues: blue, green and ochre. In
the middle of the lake, you'll see a bird's island used for the nesting
of ducks and other aquatic species.
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.
