Small lake nestled like in the palm of a hand. Possibility of going around, but on foot.

Swimming: entry into the water of the lake a little further to the west; outdoor swimming pool a little further east (https://www.pully.ch/fr/vivre-a-pully/sports-et-loisirs/les-piscines/pully-plage-covid/#main_bodywrapper). In short, a pleasant place for a break or an arrival.

Magnificent lake view in good weather. To go for a walk, you should preferably go between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. In these hours it is not too hot and the reflection of the sun on the water is superb.

Along the 475 route of swissmobile (rural loop of Gros De Vaud), we follow a small path which leads to this pond. What a nice surprise! Superb vegetation, song of birds, frogs, dragonflies .... an enchanting corner!
