Lakes
From the multitude of smaller lakes to the magnificent Lac de Saint Pardoux the French Lake District lives up to its name. You are never far from a breathtaking view and lots of places to walk in beautiful solitude, taking in the verdant countryside around you. Paths are well marked out for walkers, access is always easy with ample parking spaces, there are places to sit and take in the view, playgrounds for children and even swimming beaches on some lakes. However far or strenuously (or not) you like walking there is something for everyone. At Vue du Vallon Chambres d'hôtes we are happy to advise you on the best walks in the area and will even provide a picnic to take with you. Happy walking in the French Lake District!
Forests
A third of Haute Vienne is covered in forest – magical and tranquil – a walk in the forest can restore your equilibrium and reset your busy life. The French Lake District offers a place where nature and community are one. With a relatively low population per square meter, this area offers a peaceful, slower pace of life and the perfect opportunity to de-stress. It is not a co-incidence that lots of guided meditations lead you along a forest path and here you can experience the calming effect for yourself. Walk through the forest, listen to the birdsong, see the sun shining through the branches and glimpse the blue sky above - you will be walking towards a happier, healthier you.
Mountains
The Monts D’Ambazac are a unique natural site with many treasures to explore – dolmen, menhir, hidden caves, breathtaking views, and ancient villages nestled in the foothills. Perfect for walking, hiking and trekking, this area has much to offer both the leisurely walker and the serious trekker. Clearly marked trails mean you can walk confidently and lose yourself in the experience of being close to nature. Allow yourself time to unwind and to find time for yourself walking, trekking or hiking in the peace and quiet of this awe-inspiring place.
