Cycling along the Creux du Van is forbidden! A detour on foot is definitely worthwhile.

The "Pavilion des Bains" was built in the early 20th century and, after restoration, has found a new home here on the beach at Chez-le-Bart. The beach has a well-kept, large lawn with beach volleyball and a children's playground. The Buvette “La Capsule” finally makes this an ideal place for a short or longer break.
