Lac Bleu is one of the two bodies of water in the Carnelle forest. On sunny days, its name takes on its full meaning. But there is another reason for the name of this lake from old quarries. The bottom rock is a mixture of gypsum and marl. The color is changing due to algae, but originally it is deep blue. Around the lake, one can appreciate the oaks, the beeches and the chestnut trees. A feast for the eyes!
