Fishing and hiking in high mountain

The natural heritage site of Lac des Bouillouses, at the foot of the Carlit mount, offre exceptional high mountain landscapes.


It is one of the largest lakes in the French Pyrenees and water is everywhere : bogs, ponds and rivers browse the site, home to a particulary rich flora and fauna. Its integration into the Natura 2000 network attests to its remarkable biodiversity on a European scale. This natural site has today become a reference for scientific observation.
The surroundings of the lake have been developed to discover this exceptional nature while preserving the species present. Thus, 60 km of maintained and marked trails allow to cross these different landscapes.
