The Lac de Sainte Hélène, a natural lake fed by the Coisetan stream, is a preserved area where the banks remain wild. A landscaped path accessible to people with reduced mobility allows you to go around the lake away from the banks. Ideal picnic point and departure point for hikes. No swimming.

The land of Lake Aiguebelette is a very popular region in the summer season. Aiguebelette-le-Lac, located on the shores of the southern tip of the lake, benefits from many assets including its location and charming center. The castle of Aiguebelette le Lac is a real vestige of the 14th century, destroyed and rebuilt a century later. Today only a few vestiges of the foundations remain. The village is also the starting point for many hikes, including that of the Montagne de l'Épine.
