Description of the walk

Park in the car park at the rear of the Lac inn and restaurant.

(S/E) From the car park, head to the edge of the pond.

(1) The footpath runs between the small beach (on the right) and the children’s playground (on the left).
Continue along this path, which follows the edge of the lake southwards, then through a dry/marshy area.

(2) After the dry area, a wooden bridge over the Horn (stream) allows you to cross to the other side. Take the path on the right to return to the other side of the pond.

(3) When you reach the secondary car park (opposite the playground as seen from the pond), follow the path that runs below and alongside the jetty.
Walk past the restaurant terrace and cross the Horn again at the lake’s dam to reach the car park on the left (S/E).
