Guidebook with maps/step-by-step
0/ Departure from La Beunaz beach parking lot.
1/ From the parking lot, follow the road uphill on your right. Then, before the restaurant "Le Crobidou", take the path down on your right. Follow the signs for "Lac Noir". At a crossroads, at the end of a stretch of water, take the left-hand path which leads to an information table.
2/ Follow the path over a bridge and continue straight ahead. At the crossroads, take the path that remains slightly flat and you'll reach the black lake followed by an information table. Continue along the path around the lake, which guides you to various pontoons and information panels.
3/ Once you've circumnavigated the "Lac Noir", once again arriving at the first information table, take the path overlooking it. At a crossroads with a bridge, take the path that climbs to your right.
4/ At the next junction, take the steep path down to the almost-island. Walk around the peninsula and retrace your steps. When you reach the top of the path, take the one that continues on the flat, opposite. You'll then pass the accrobranche (tree climbing) area and the teepees of the "Plage de La Beunaz". Then cross the road to reach the parking lot.
