Nestling in a pine, beech and spruce forest not far from Besse-et-Saint-Anastaise is a beautiful volcanic crater lake called Lac Pavin (surface area 44 hectares, depth 92 metres). Take the footpath surrounding the lake for a peaceful and very romantic hour-long walk. The water is teaming with trout so it's also a popular place for fishing enthusiasts.
