Water sports and hiking
St Pardoux Lake (a massive 330-hectare body of water), one of the most popular tourist sites in the Haute Vienne, is only a 40 minute drive through beautiful countryside. It offers sailing, pedalos, canoeing, fishing, and of course, swimming and relaxing on its scenic shores.
Or you can go hiking in the surrounding heather-filled moors. There is even an Acrobatic Park in the forest that includes an ariel bike and a giant zipline!
