モンバールの湖・トップ5

Charming ponds in the middle of the countryside and on the edge of a wood, with a picnic and games area. There are wide flat lawns, trees, outhouses and the water in the pond is clean enough to swim in, making it an ideal bivouac spot.

The Armancon dam is a truly amazing work of architecture and the trek to the top is a pleasure.

Lac de Marcenay is artificial and was actually created by monks in 1239 for fish farming! There is also a blast furnace dating from the 18th century.

Just three kilometers from Semur-en-Auxois, the L'Armancon dam is located above Pont-et-Massène. The dam wall is accessible, offers a beautiful view of the lake and you can include it in a hiking tour around the lake. The dam serves to regulate the water flow and as a reservoir for the Canal de Bourgogne.

Small nice sandy beach, directly at the dam. There are changing rooms, a small restaurant on the beach 🏖 and a mobile snack sale at the entrance.

Swim or rent a kayak. Unfortunately no snacks or drinks but a proper restaurant.

Very nice reservoir with a beach, a restaurant and many places to rest. The road to the lake that runs along the beach is extremely pleasant.
