Very pleasant forest for cycling. Plenty of rideable paths and fun singletracks. Good in late spring and summer, be careful if it rains, it quickly gets muddy on some paths!

Unmissable at the gates of Toulouse! Forest very popular with hikers of all kinds (on two legs or two wheels) but which still has very wild corners!

Calm and quiet lake deep in the country side. Very appreciated bu the locals for a jog or walking the dog on a summer’s day. Wading birds and other wildlife gather in the shallower parts of the lake.
