About

Departing from Queige (73720)

A comfortable walk along two footbridges on either side of the Doron. The parking lot is on the right bank of the Doron at the traffic circle. After crossing the covered footbridge, the walk begins with a tour of the heart-shaped lake, including a description of the Queige hydroelectric power station (the oldest hydroelectric plant in the Beaufortain region, commissioned in 1909). After the playground, the walk passes through an avenue of apple trees, all of different varieties. The walk continues past a pond created to encourage batrachian reproduction. A footbridge, installed in 2023, takes you across the Doron and up its right bank, past the campsite (with a view of the unusual habitats) and the soccer pitch. The walk has been enhanced with information panels highlighting the site's biodiversity, forest and EDF hydroelectric facilities.
