Lac de la Ganne - Pêche et randonnée pédestre.

A 35-hectare lake, the Ganne reservoir is part of a large complex of lakes dedicated to the replenishment of the Dropt river. The tour of the lake allows you to observe the many water birds that frequent it. If in spring the crested grebe, the great crested gull, nests, and in the surrounding wastelands the classic procession of hedgerow species, it is above all in winter and during migration that Ganne becomes interesting. Common scaup and tufted ducks, surface ducks, and in severe winters the common scoter and the common loon can be observed. In autumn, small numbers but a great diversity of sandpipers, sandpipers, sandpipers, gravel plovers and other waders are passing through, with the result that rare species such as the Temminck's sandpiper can be seen. The osprey and the hobby falcon are also regular visitors. You can walk around the lake on a signposted path.
