Fishing at the Lac de Saint-Pardoux

Surrounded by forests and meadows, the Lac de Saint-Pardoux is an unspoilt area where nature comes into its own. Its wooded banks, discreet wildlife and calm waters make it an ideal place to observe the scenery, listen to the sounds of wildlife and enjoy an environment that has remained natural. As the seasons change, the colours change, migratory birds stop off, and each walk reveals a different facet of this living, authentic environment.

All year round, as well as fishing, the Lac de Saint-Pardoux offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking and cycling. A signposted path stretches for almost 25 kilometres around the lake, and there are also a number of variations that allow you to do just some of it. These variants are ideal for horse riding and beginner mountain bikers. A cycle path links the 3 sites on the lake, which are very busy in summer, as well as the village of Saint-Pardoux-Le-Lac.

Open from the Easter to the All Saints’ Day holidays, the Maison du Lac et du Tourisme welcomes you to a warm and welcoming setting overlooking the beach at Santrop. Here you’ll find all the information you need to plan your stay in Limousin, as well as a shop selling comforting local produce. After your fishing session, you can enjoy a hot or cold drink in the relaxation area.
