Voissières Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Voissière waterfall has its source in a small stream near Chambon des Neiges. It joins by the waterfall, the Couze de Chaudefour which then feeds the Lac Chambon. The waterfall remains mysterious, partly hidden by vegetation.

Access to the site:
From the town of Chambon sur Lac, take the D637 for about 2.5 km towards the Chaudefour Valley Nature Reserve. After the hamlet of Voissière on the road to the right is the waterfall. It is visible from the road. The path leading to the foot of the waterfall is quite narrow and covered with vegetation making it difficult to access.

Lake Chambon

Highlight • Lake

Chambon Lake owes its origin to a volcanic flow that blocked the Couze Chambon. Beaches are provided on the northern and western parts of the lake, but it is possible to go around them in order to enjoy the calm of nature on the southern banks.

Lac Chambon Beach

Highlight • Lake

Lac Chambon is a lake of volcanic origin. Between its remarkable view of the Monts Dore and its shallow depth (only four meters), swimming becomes very pleasant.

As a good walker, you need an hour to hike around the lake. If you prefer water sports, go directly to the leisure base.

On the beach, taverns, ice cream parlors and restaurants are also open during the high season.
