Just a short distance from Morcenx is the Arjuzanx nature reserve, a vast 2,600-hectare area in the centre of which is a lake with exceptionally high water quality, bordered by a fine sandy beach much appreciated by local residents and tourists alike. You can also enjoy canoeing, sailing, stand-up paddle, pedal boats, or go for a walk along the discovery and hiking trails. Arjuzanx is also the largest French wintering site for common cranes. From mid-October to mid-March, thousands of migratory birds gather in the “dormitories”, where they find the ideal conditions to spend the winter. A sumptuous show to be discovered in the early morning or at nightfall.
