The Marais Pond, a former gravel pit, is now a large carp pond with numerous benches around the lake for recreation. The pond contains a herd of approximately 300 carp, weighing up to 16 kg. The lake contains mirror carp, koi carp, common carp, and small sturgeon.

The lake is picturesquely located on the outskirts of town. Behind the lake there is a small forest with a beautiful stream. The tranquility of these places seems unreal, as they are immediately surrounded by a campsite and the town.
