Originally, Lake Liez was called “Lecey dyke”. This is linked to the digging of the Marne-Saône canal. The Liez dam is 490 meters long and 16 meters high. It is the largest of the four feeding lakes of the upper reach of the canal between Champagne and Burgundy.

Lac de la Mouche is surrounded by forests and villages where you can admire views of the water and wildlife, as well as the impressive semi-viaduct dam that holds back the lake. The trail is easy and well marked, and you can access it all year round.

You can walk along the shore of the first of the three pools, dedicated to nature and water activities. You will enjoy the views of the lake and the village, and you may spot some of the migratory birds that frequent this preserved space. The Lac de Charmes circuit is an excellent option for your running.

Lac de la Liez beach is a sandy beach which offers a beautiful view of the lake and the dam. You can swim in the lake when the green flag is raised, which means the water quality and safety are good. The beach also has a solarium, volleyball court, playground and picnic area. A first aid station and toilets will make your task easier. The beach is open from June to September, from 1:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.
