패시브‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

Not easy but very pretty once up there 😅

The first of the Cheserys lakes, a shame that transit through the other small ones was prohibited.

Modest, compared to the rest, but also extraordinary, because of the frame.

I loved this lake! and even more so to go around it (with some complicated steps) and see it full of fish.

Despite its part in supplying the region's hydroelectric power, Lac d'Émosson is a beautiful and striking mountain lake, offering fantastic views and relatively easy access. From the dam you will have an incredible view of the Aiguille Verte, a mountain that seems to look different from every perspective. The surrounding area of the dam is a hotspot for dinosaur footprints, so be sure to look for them! I'm sure if you're lucky you might even find a few dinosaurs still walking around there.

Lac d'Emosson is the second largest reservoir in Switzerland after Lac des Dix (Grande Dixence). The 180m high arch dam holds a secret that is revealed every spring when the water level is low. There is a dam in the reservoir from the 1920s: the SBB Barberine dam. To get to Lac d'Emosson, you can either drive up by car or bus, or you can take a combination of three cable cars from the valley of "Le Châtelard" to the dam. Pure adventure 👌🏻 For the daring, there is a spectacular zip line or a dizzying climbing wall right next to the dam. Another attraction is the well-preserved footprints of 250-million-year-old archosaurs above Lac du Vieux Emosson, which is about a 2.5-hour walk from Lac d'Emosson.

Always a pleasure to visit France as a hiking country

A great little lake, which nestles picturesquely in the forest.
