At Lac de Frace: Landscape, Walks and Boats
Lac de Frace offers visitors a landscaped setting in the Marais d'Aigrefeuille, where walks are possible. The 2.3 km Balades à roulettes – Lac de Frace is a route for wheelchair users and families, accessible to wheelchairs, strollers and children's balance bikes. Accessibility conditions may vary after wet weather. If the route is important to your plans, bear this in mind and check conditions after wet weather before using it.
Port Miniature Lac de Frace offers rides in small electric boats on the lake. This service may be seasonal; check in advance whether rides are available on your travel dates if you would like to go boating. A walk and a boat ride offer different experiences and are two ways to include Lac de Frace in your stay.
