Stand-up paddleboarding in Lozère

Stand-up paddleboarding involves gliding across the water whilst standing on a surfboard, which you steer using a paddle. Having taken the ocean coastline by storm, this water sport is now making its way inland.

On the lakes

This activity offers a smooth glide, fun and thrills. Set off to discover nature’s wonders as you sail across the lakes of Lozère: Lake Villefort, Lake Naussac or Lake Moulinet. In the heart of unspoilt natural areas, you’ll have the chance to rise above the water and discover the landscapes in a whole new way… From Mont-Lozère to Aubrac via Margeride, once you’ve tried this activity, you’ll be hooked!

On the river

For something a little more unusual, you can try stand-up paddleboarding in the Gorges du Tarn, day or night. You’ll glide across the turquoise waters as you set out to discover the secrets of the Tarn. You’re bound to come across canoes and boatmen as you make your way along the river. From Sainte-Enimie, via La Malène, to the village of Les Vignes, make the most of this opportunity to explore the villages in a different way. Then there’s Les Détroits, the narrowest point of the Gorges du Tarn, accessible only by river.
