Beautiful little lake! Not a soul around at the start of the year. I recommend passing by if you're cycling.

Great atmosphere in this charming little village.

This watermill was in operation for 40 years. It has been restored to its original condition, and its paddle wheel now allows the gears and thus the millstone to rotate. The aroma of walnut and hazelnut oil, which has been pressed here for years, can be smelled throughout the interior.

The four-kilometer-long canal serves as a natural outlet for the waters of Lake Bourget toward the Rhône, and vice versa when the river is in flood. Over the years, it has been widened, rectified, and cleaned to improve the passage of commercial and passenger ships. In the last century, this was an important trade route.

Very pretty, calm and peaceful lake

Orientation table overlooking the small village of Vongnes, you can see particularly well the south of the Massif du Grand Colombier, the surrounding vineyards and the Marais de Lavours nature reserve.

It's quite easy to ride on a road bike (unless you ride the old-fashioned way with thin, over-inflated tires). The path is sometimes stony, but if you're comfortable on a bike, it's fine (in dry weather... if it's greasy, it must still be less pleasant).
