The Best Attractions In Montbel

  • 1. lac de Montbel Montbel
    The Lac de Montbel is a reservoir 5 minutes from Chalabre, which is a popular location for watersports and swimming.

The flooded hillsides are still evident when the water level drops, revealing tree stumps and the thick sticky clay so typical of the Ariège.

It is located in the Dordogne River valley in Le Buisson-de-Cadouin, Dordogne, Aquitaine, France.
