Swimming in the clear water, picnicking on the grass, canoeing or tree climbing: there is something for everyone. The lake is set in a picturesque valley, surrounded by gentle hills and green forests, providing an idyllic backdrop. Children can play to their heart's content here, while adults relax by the water or rent a boat to explore the area from the lake. It's the ideal place to combine nature, sports, and relaxation.

The region around Moulin de Chaules offers more than just nature: local gastronomy and culture invite exploration.
