Lac de Flourens is an artificial lake covering 7 hectares. It is used for recreation and fishing.
Those who choose Flourens as a holiday destination may wish to rent a holiday apartment.
By the Water
At Lac de Flourens, a 2.7 km loop runs along the water and beneath the canopy of large trees. There are five educational stations along the loop covering common animals and plants.
The path located at Lac de Flourens is accessible to everyone and was designed especially for people with visual impairments and people with reduced mobility.
Nature
Waterfowl can be observed at Lac de Flourens all year round, including mallards and grey herons, which can be seen every day.
Culture
Saint Martin Church was deeply affected by the Wars of Religion; it contains a 16th-century Pietà on a marble pedestal.
The new town hall-school was built on the village square in 1884 and follows the architectural tradition of the Toulouse region.
History
The Madeleine Church is the former church of the municipality of Péchauriole. The building collapsed in January 1977; a group of dedicated volunteers from the association “les Amis de la Madeleine” had it restored after two years of work.
Paths
A circular walk begins at the lake, passes through the town centre to the information board, and continues towards the chapel.
