Discover Les Cammazes in the Montagne Noire

A mountain village at the heart of the Canal du Midi heritage

Located in the Montagne Noire, the village of Les Cammazes is a wonderful place to visit during your stay at Camping Saint-Martin in Sorèze. Just a few minutes from the campsite, this small village offers a blend of nature, history and delightful walks.

Les Cammazes is particularly well known for the Voûte Vauban, an impressive structure linked to the water supply of the Canal du Midi.

This site is part of the system designed to carry water from the Montagne Noire to the canal, notably thanks to the famous mountain channel, which has now become a popular place for walks.

The mountain stream originates at the Alzeau water intake and flows for around 25 kilometres through the forest before reaching Les Cammazes and Lake Saint-Ferréol.
