In the immediate vicinity you can practice canoeing on the Hérault, accrobranche (2 sites), climbing on the Taillade ridge (known throughout Europe judging by the number plates) and even paragliding from the Hortus cause which dominates the south of the plain or gliding over the mythical Pic Saint-Loup.

River, lake or beaches? You will have the choice between the sandy banks of the Hérault, the sublime lake of Salagou, and of course the soft beaches of the Mediterranean, the closest of which is 20 minutes away. Of course, we provide you with beach umbrellas and towels.

Do you like wine? More than 60 winegrowers (AOC Pic Saint Loup) will always be happy to let you taste their production. We will know how to guide you.
