Access to the site, its beach (unsupervised), and its bar-restaurant is open to the public and free all day long during the summer. Water sports are available daily from 1:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. during the summer; morning sessions are available by reservation for groups of 9 or more. To cool off and have fun, we offer water activities suitable for everyone: from the water ski lift to pedal boats, stand-up paddleboarding, and XXL paddleboarding, there’s something for all ages and tastes. Water Ski Lift: 760-meter loop, accommodating 8 skiers at a time. Thrill-seekers can enjoy this invigorating and eco-friendly recreational sport: water skiing, wakeboarding, knee boarding (on your knees), wake skating...For experienced riders, three modules are available: 2 kickers and a flat box. A boat will pick you up if you fall and take you back to the dock for another try. (Ages 8 and up; must know how to swim; safety equipment provided; activity supervised by a BNSSA-certified lifeguard). Pedal Boats: Up to 4 people can ride per pedal boat and enjoy the river on a route up to 3 km long. It’s a chance to peacefully take in the scenery along the Ariège River, where even the youngest children can join in. Stand-up paddleboarding: Whether you’re looking for a leisurely paddle or a more athletic challenge, stand-up paddleboarding is a fun and accessible activity. Standing on a board, you propel yourself forward with a paddle. Giant paddleboarding: Same concept as paddleboarding… but with 6 people on an XXL board: fun and spills guaranteed! For all activities, life jackets are required and provided.
