Hiking
Originally created in 1864 to supply the Sauldre canal with water.
Now partly developed as a recreational area: beach area, hiking trails, water sports (sailing, ski-nautique, pedalo), and an ornithological reserve.
For nature lovers: you'll find a rich bird life (cendré heron, grèbe huppé, etc.) and diverse flora along the banks.
For families: picnic areas, a beach area in the summer, and playgrounds.
