バール＝シュル＝オーブの湖・トップ8

As idyllic as the 'Etang de Frouasse' appears to the viewer today, the body of water is by no means of natural origin. Its construction was driven by economic interests at the time, as the builders (according to 'Paul_C''s contribution, the Knights Templar, whose exact name was "Poor Knights of Christ and of Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem") could use such a pond either for fish farming or to power mills.

Unfortunately, the path was blocked by a barrier at this point. A bike wouldn't fit next to it. Perhaps we were there at the wrong time, but we had to take the bumpy path back to the intersection. From there, the path is well-maintained and it's a straight line—you can't go wrong.

This village owes its notoriety to the very beautiful lake located in its commune. It is the smallest of the three reservoir lakes, but in my opinion the most preserved.

The Forêt d'Orient regional natural park was created in 1970. It is made up of vast forests as well as three large lakes: Lac d'Orient (2,500 hectares), Lac du Temple (1,800 hectares). ) and Lake Amance (500 hectares). It also brings together many small communities.

On the edge of the lake and the Forêt d'Orient regional natural park, this town is at the very heart of a preserved place, combining vast forests and three reservoir lakes. The village is about a two-hour drive from Paris.

From here you have stunning views of both sides of the lake. A beautiful stretch to walk that gives you the impression of being in the middle of the lake.

The Frouasse pond is a small lake surrounded by century-old trees and rich fauna. There you can admire the view of the water and the reflections of the sky, as well as the singing of birds and frogs. The pond is also a historic site, as it was one of the many ponds created by the Templars in the Middle Ages.
