Saint-Pardoux en Limousin: a holiday in the heart of natureHeritage, know-how, activities

Lac de Saint-Pardoux and surrounding area in Limousin

What’s this lake 20 minutes from Limoges that offers all these activities?

It’s the Lac de Saint-Pardoux and its tourist resort in the Monts du Limousin!

It’s a destination with two faces, one with a protected and lively natural environment (there’s talk of nature sports) in the Monts de Blond and Monts d’Ambazac, and the other with a rich architectural heritage.

Around Lac de Saint-Pardoux, you’ll find towns with character: Le Dorat – Petites Cités de Caractère® and Mortemart – one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France in Haut Limousin. Have you heard of village museums? Discover the Nostalgie Rurale trail at Montrol-Senard.

Give in to temptation and book your holiday or weekend!
