サン＝カッシェンの湖・トップ5

Lake Paladru is very popular in the summer, especially on weekends. Swimming is possible; there's a small, well-equipped beach.

This is a classic bike ride around Grenoble, easy and suitable for the whole family.

Inaccessible ponds. Private properties.

A tourist attraction in this area is Lake Paladru, which stretches from the village of the same name in the north to Charavines in the south. If you walk around the lake from a distance rather than on the paths directly along the shore, the hills offer some very beautiful views of the landscape. But not only that: on the outskirts of Bilieu – on the eastern shore of the lake – we pass a small sacred monument: a simple wayside cross made of two massive wooden beams (without a body or INRI inscription), which already shows the wear and tear of wind and weather.

On the eastern shore of Lac Paladru, the cycle path is perfectly developed and also easy to use for families with small children

Beautiful public bathing area, turquoise water

Superb, very quiet place, ideal for a cool break. You can see huge chestnut trees all around.
