The lakes


Want a change from ocean beaches? The Landes are also full of lakes and ponds within the largest artificial forest in Europe!

Lakes and ponds

If you prefer fresh water, the area has many lakes and ponds nearby. Just a few steps from the campsite, you will find for example the pond of Léon, where you can sunbathe in peace or try the adventure by canoe kayak to go down the course of La Palue for example.

The tourist offices of Vielle Saint-Girons and Léon will describe you all the small pleasures that offer the surrounding sites if necessary. Inquire at the tourist office of the city of Leon if you want to know more about it, the team will be happy to guide you. Many infrastructures are open to make you discover the Landes according to its rivers (www.aufildeleau40.fr et  www.aupontneuf.fr).
