Tips
Generally speaking, it's a beautiful pool, but because it's so central and easily accessible, it's also quite crowded. There are a few parking spaces, but when it's very busy, they're far from enough. There are certainly nicer and more relaxing pools. It's not ideal for lying or sitting either.

Located directly on the N308-1. Parking nearby is extremely difficult. The best way is to stop at the border and then walk back along the road (around 1 km).

Beautiful, but crowded in July. There are nicer, less crowded swimming spots nearby.
