Overview
Grandes Cimes proves you don't have to pay a premium for genuinely excellent carp fishing - this great value carp fishing in France offers carp to over 64lb on a 7-acre gravel pit with stunning gin-clear water and a strong average weight of around 30lb.
It's a natural, wild setting, with two large double swims each giving you effectively half the lake to fish, plus excellent vehicle access - ideal for those bringing a small campervan. You can either book a swim individually for up to 2 anglers or the lake exclusive for up to 4 anglers.
Anglers consistently praise the quality here: reviewers describe it as "a proper gem" with hard-fighting carp. As one recent guest put it, this is "a good challenging lake that will make you think about your tactics and approach" and reward you handsomely when you get it right.
Located in the pretty Champagne region of northern France, Grandes Cimes is easily accessible, a 3hr 50 drive from the port of Calais.
This venue is also open throughout the winter, though facilities are much more limited during colder months - please contact us to discuss.

"A proper gem! Beautiful gin clear water, wild lake with hard fighting carp if you get on them, plenty of beauties can be had. Owner is a top class bloke, will help in any way possible. 100% recommend the lake to anyone."
Paul Robinson
"Biggest was 54lb 8oz mirror (PB), 2 x 40's , 1 x 30, 4 x 20's & 1 x 15lb 8oz mirror. The weather was up and down with a few thunderstorms so lots of rain but we still enjoyed our trip. Constant was great & always there if you needed him."
John Kittle
