The Fortunio peak is the highest point in the Margeride massif. It is therefore naturally designated as the ideal observation post for Lake Charpal.

Aumont-Aubrac is located in the Lozère department on the Aubrac plateau and is one of the charming stopping points on the Way of St. James, the Via Podiensis. The village captivates with its narrow streets, traditional granite houses, and a remarkable church. Pilgrims and hikers appreciate the warm atmosphere and the numerous accommodations. Aumont-Aubrac is known for its culinary specialties featuring Aubrac beef. The surrounding landscape of meadows, forests, and expansive plateaus invites hikes and makes the village an ideal starting point for nature lovers.

Lac de Charpal lies at an altitude of 1,360 meters amidst raised bogs, forests, and heathland. This artificial reservoir, built in the 1930s, supplies Mende with drinking water. Today, it is a tranquil retreat, popular for hiking, nature observation, and its protected flora and fauna.

Very nice walk, the first part is a little difficult to access the lake because of the big difference in altitude. But the tour of the lake is very pleasant, and accessible with children (10 years old)

An extremely pleasant walk with beautiful panoramas, to do on foot or by bike, a successful experience despite a headwind on the eastern side of the lake which cools the air, I highly recommend it.

The Charpal lake discovery trail offers numerous perspectives on the body of water. This one is particularly beautiful! A path allows you to approach the water.
