Gravel riding

The Pissevaches lagoon covers an area of 900 ha, it is a vast ecological complex rehabilitated as part of a management plan and included in the Natura 2000 site « Basse Plaine de l’Aude ».

Part of the territory of the Narbonnaise en Méditerranée Regional Natural Park, it has particularly sensitive protected natural areas: the beach is alive and the dune vegetation is fragile.

Gravel riding

It’s hard to believe that such a wild landscape stretches out just a stone’s throw from Saint-Pierre-la-Mer. The Pissevaches pond is a coastal lagoon shaped by the sea and wind, where saltwater, salt marshes, and reed beds mingle. Its surprising name is said to come from the Occitan “pitz vaca,” an old image evoking freshwater springs compared to a “cow’s urine.” Here, the border between land and sea still seems to be in motion, offering an open and changing scenery typical of the Aude coastline.
