Kitesurfing and windsurfing at Lake Monteynard

The spot for kitesurfing and windsurfing: Lake Monteynard

The leading freshwater spot in Europe, Lake Monteynard is nestled in the Alps, south of Grenoble, in Isère.

A thermal wind blows every afternoon, making Lake Monteynard a renowned kitesurfing and windsurfing spot. The kitesurfing spot, located at the entrance to our campsite in Isère, welcomes sports enthusiasts from Grenoble and the Rhône-Alpes region.

The friendly atmosphere of the spot and the professionals in the surrounding area (shops, schools, etc.) allow kitesurfers on holiday to discover the site. Lake Monteynard is known as one of the best spots for freshwater sailing sports, particularly windsurfing and kitesurfing. Its location in the heart of the Drac Gorges creates a north-south thermal wind.

Camping de la Plage, the ideal campsite for kitesurfing on Lake Monteynard, overlooks the two main launch sites:

one for kitesurfers located just opposite the campsite entrance with a dedicated inflation area (the only one on the lake), the other for windsurfers below, immediately accessible from the campsite with a grassy beach.

From the campsite, you can walk to the water sports centre 100 metres away, which offers equipment hire (windsurfing, sailing, etc.) and schools (FFV, Technikite and Freekite School). At the Plage campsite, you can enjoy a terraced site with views of Lake Monteynard (and your friends sailing), a friendly welcome and a range of services: rental accommodation near Grenoble, suitable for everyone: Équinoxe chalets, 2, 4 or 6-person bungalows, trapper tents, bivouac tents, caravans, pitches for tents, caravans or motorhomes, bike and stand-up paddleboard hire for windless days, Le Spot restaurant-pizzeria in Treffort for snacks between sessions, grocery store and convenience store…
