October 8, 2026, Vue du barrage sur le Bassin de Champagney

From the dam, you can enjoy a wide view over the reservoir. The striking reddish-brown banks contrast beautifully with the water and the wooded hills of the Vosges in the background.

The Étang du Malsaucy (often also called Lac du Malsaucy) is, with an area of 55 hectares, the largest lake in the French department of Territoire de Belfort. It is nestled in the Parc naturel régional des Ballons des Vosges, spread across the municipalities of Évette-Salbert, Lachapelle-sous-Chaux, and Sermamagny. Originally built at the end of the 15th century for fish farming, it is now one of the most important recreational and natural areas in the region.
