    Hiking

    The Salagou dam is relatively recent (construction and impoundment between 1964 and 1971) and it regulates the flow of the Salagou River and creates a reservoir for irrigation. As with all bodies of water, the tourist interest is not to be neglected.

    The Salagou dam, located in Hérault, is a spectacular site surrounded by contrasting landscapes, where the red earth of the ruffes mixes with the blue waters of the lake. This dam, which created the famous Salagou lake, offers an ideal setting for nature and outdoor activity lovers. As you walk along the banks, you can admire the unique rock formations and enjoy panoramic views of the lake and the surrounding hills.
