Lauzon Lake

Lauzon Lake is a glacial trough. During the maximum glacier Würm, 10 000 years ago, the ancient glacier dug a basin in the fractured migmatized gneiss by a North-South fault. It is called the « lawn lake » because it is subjected to clement climatic conditions with 4 or 5 months of thaw. In these waters, aquatic vegetation is very present, which translates a large biological productivity.
