I'm sorry to say that although we bought our house in Murat over 5 years ago we only visited Bort-Les-Orgues for the first time in August 2010. This is a shame because it's a scant 30 minutes drive from the house in Murat-le-Quaire and has a lot to offer.
For one thing it's a lot lower than Murat-le-Quaire temperatures and water temperatures tend to be higher. There is great swimming in the huge lake above the reservoir. There's also a large Aquapark which our kids loved. It's a kind of mini 'Total Wipeout' course with inflatable pontoons to slide down, run along and jump off. You can also hire canoes or pedaloes for trips around the lake. There's also a large boat offering guided tours around the lake and the picturesque Chateau de Val which overlooks the lake.
Highly recommended! See www.bort-artense.com for more information.
