ヴェルドン湖でののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Tour of Lake Ribou completed on August 1, 2025. I'd had it on my radar for years. A beautiful lake that provides fresh water to Cholet residents' taps. 11 km on a green-marked trail. Worth a look for its viaduct and numerous blackberry hedges.

The dam itself is made up of two sets: a long curved dike made of rock on the upstream side, with a grassy embankment on the downstream side; a reinforced core in the form of six concrete vaults. The reservoir, with a surface area of 220 ha, stretches as far as Maulévrier, on the edge of Deux-Sèvres. Fishing is tolerated there, as is sailing in summer. The rest of the activities are subject to greater restrictions than at the Ribou dam. This is justified by the classification as a natural zone of ecological, fauna and flora interest (ZNIEFF) of the perimeter. In fact, more than 200 species of migrants have been counted there throughout the year. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrage_du_Verdon
