Bois de Coarraze

The lake of Sargaillouse is a small artificial lake of half a hectare, at the heart of Coarraze Wood. Fed by the Sargaille stream it discharges its overflow into the Lagoin. Nestled in a luxuriant, verdant setting, it represents a complex ecosystem where forest and wetlands cohabit. Here you can find a great number of bird species, such as heron, egret and kingfisher; and a great number of amphibians, including salamanders, newts, frogs and toads. The local fish are rainbow trout, bream, carp and roach. This small lake, stocked with young fish every year, is the perfect place to go fishing with your family and for picnics.
