Lake Matemale

Highlight • Other

Very large lake (retained on the Aude) with a beautiful view of the two roads that go down there. The one that goes to Angles seemed to me more pleasant in terms of curve, and circulation.

Lake Matemale

Highlight • Lake

The Matemale lake is located in the middle of the Capcir plateau. The color of its waters captures the attention and creates a desire: to get closer and perhaps take a dip. The lake is developed, and a equipped leisure base opens onto its shores. An ideal stopover.
