You can enjoy peace and quiet within the property itself, or escape along the famous canal du Midi for some very nice bike rides, under the shade of plane trees lining its banks; in the heart of Montagne Noire for those who love hiking; around the lake of Saint-Ferréol and its water sports centre; and of course Rigole de la Plaine (dug during the 17th century), a 15 km long bike trail between Revel and the lake of Lenclas, at the foot of Saint-Félix-du-Lauragais. It is a very pleasant and shady route open to cyclists, which winds gently downhill through restful landscapes dotted with fields of rape, windmills and sunflowers.
