Description

A walk around Lac Saint Clair, a small natural lake surrounded by an outstanding wetland area. It is now set up as a leisure area, with boardwalks and bridges dotting the trail.

Lac Saint Clair is a place to relax. A former glacial lake, it was "exploited" as early as the 12th century by the Carthusian monks of Saint Hugon, as a fishpond. Today, the lake is the scene of numerous summer events, including the lake festival, the bicycle festival and fishing competitions.
In summer, the lake features a mini-golf course, a restaurant and a paddling pool for children.
