René Thinat Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

And then Orleans appears before us—which bridge?
We chose the Pont René Thinat, and that was a good thing, because it has a dedicated bike lane.

Beach and playgrounds

Highlight • Beach

The pond beach is a very pleasant place to relax. Between June and September swimming is authorized and supervised.

The playgrounds are located behind the beach. The structures are diverse, and will please children of all ages.
