Randonnée - la beuille sur la ligne de partage des eaux

This pond was classified as a ‘sensitive natural area’ in 2004. It is located in a forest covering more than 2 hectares created in 1480 to supply the mills and sawmills in the surrounding area. It is open to fishing from early April to 11/11 (trout, roach, tench, carp). The marshy alder forest at the end of the pond is recognised as being of European interest, with sedges forming touradons (sort of large tufts of raised grass). Starting point for a nature trail around the pond, with picnic area. Fishing cards on sale at the Tourist Office. Near ‘La Vigotte’.
