Lac de la Motte

Highlight • Lake

It is a natural lake of glacial origin with a wild appearance. This lake will surprise you with its turquoise shores on a clear day and its cliffs in the background. It is otherwise known as Lake Ilay. With an area of 72 hectares and an average depth of ten meters, it is fed mainly by Lake Grand Maclu, to which it is connected by a small natural canal approximately 200 meters long. Possible activities: Hiking (tour of the three lakes/four lakes) and mountain biking (tour of the five lakes), horse riding, holiday activities and entertainment... Swimming is tolerated, under your own responsibility.

Rue des Cascades

Highlight (Segment) • Other

A beautiful asphalt road through the valley of Carstic formations and with views of several small waterfalls. There are turns, so you have to be careful, because there are a lot of cars, especially on weekends. Stay close to the side.

Petit Maclu Lake

Highlight • Lake

The Grand Maclu, the Lac d'Ilay and the Petit Maclu together form a string of lakes connected by a small stream.
Located in a Natura 2000 area, the lake offers an exceptional habitat for many animal species. These wetlands are particularly rich: you can see water lilies, reeds, rushes or even sedges.
