For the renovated picnic area, its canoe-kayak base, its shaded areas on the banks of the Clain. From here you are 5 minutes from the old town. Its church, its cloister and its flower market square.

Small path that runs along the Clain and which leads to the "Farvavelle" ferry. The chain ferry makes it very easy to reach the other side independently.
