Description
Standing still, with its wings outstretched, a magnificent white stork is ready to take flight under the curious eyes of other species in Virelles lake, such as coots, passerines, etc. Along this node way, keen photographers capture these sensuous moments. Nestled in a bend of the Eau Blanche, Lompret is delightful with its long stone houses, magnificent 18th century bridge, religious heritage, remarkable trees and of course its succulent escavèche fish dish.
