Pré du laus Lake
Presentation
Accessible in 45 minutes, the Pré du Laus lake is THE family hike accessible to as many people as possible.
The route takes a wide forest track. passable by mountain bike and hybrid bike, we used to call this hike: "The strollers hike" the wheels must still be wide enough. A slight drop of 218m awaits you, but the reward is great for children, a pretty emerald-colored lake. A picnic area is available to reward young and old with a good meal! During these 6.5 km (Round trip), it is not uncommon to see herds of cows grazing not far from there ... And why not hear the marmots whistling nearby ...
Ideally in summer, the forest road turns into a shared route in winter, the lake empties, it is no longer visible, but the forest road will allow you to initiate you to skating, snowshoeing, or simply to stroll after ski on your feet, in the forest, in a heavenly white.
