Access to the lake is guaranteed by a large car park. Then gravel paths allow you to walk around the lake. However, the banks are difficult to access. For the entertainment part, there are several pontoons and several areas announced on a map at the entrance to the lake to view the various species of birds to observe. A petanque court, not maintained, is available which will make your games tougher than usual. The lake is still beautiful and relaxing even for a quiet siesta.

The lake is pretty, it is possible to go around it on foot but you have to hold on: 7.8 km on a path not fitted out for walkers, you have to want to wander around in good shoes and be careful: a fall is quickly arrived! ... after an hour, we had only made a small third of the course, from which we can see little of the lake, in addition! In short, there are improvements to be made.
