Authorized fishing
No Kill fishing is permitted.
All fish caught must be returned to the water immediately, except bream. Catch and release is forbidden. Fishing with livebait, spoons and artificial lures is prohibited.

Several forest paths lead from the pond to the surrounding forests, in particular the Bois de la Joux and the Massif du Risoux.
These routes, varying in length from 5 to 15 km, allow you to immerse yourself in a generous natural environment, with majestic fir trees, peaceful clearings and moss-lined paths.
