Beautiful lake in the middle of nowhere. Beautiful loop around the lake around.

The following legend is reported about the Lac de la Maix: On a pilgrimage day, an unknown musician came and made the villagers dance after playing the violin. They danced with such zeal that they did not hear the bell that called to mass. It has been suggested that the stranger is the devil himself. The punishment was not long in coming, the earth opened up under the dancers, who were drowned in the lake that rose up from the earth. Villagers were condemned to continue dancing there until Judgment Day. Today it is said that on some evenings you can still hear the violinist... "what an incredible robber's pistol" :-D
