Lac du Bouchet is a magnificent body of water suitable for swimming and walking. Indeed a landscaped path goes around it.

On its southern part there is a beach and a relaxation area. You will also find at the level of its northern part a very good restaurant which serves local dishes.

The Lac du Bouchet, a circular crater lake that has been a listed monument since 1950. Since 1863, the lake has belonged to the department of Haute-Loire, which is managed with the help of the National Forest Service.

There is a supervised bathing area on the southern shore. There is also a restaurant and boat rentals on site.
